Conceived in 1996, Neptune’s very first design was a garden hammock – made around a kitchen table by the company’s two co-founders, John Sims-Hilditch and Giles Redman. Over 20 years on, the business has gone from strength to strength, expanding into all areas of home and garden and launching three design services.
Most recently, the company introduced Neptune Trade, which provides interior designers, architects, and landscape designers with an exclusive discount on their designs. Neptune’s offerings are unique – from large-scale furniture down to beautiful accessories, covering kitchen, bathroom, dining, living and more. The brand also has its own paint and fabric collections, allowing designers to source everything they might need for a project.

The Neptune Trade discount can be used online or in any one of the over 30 stores the brand has throughout the UK. Members can also access their home and kitchen design services and colour consultancy at a discounted rate by enquiring with their local store.
Other benefits include previews of new collections before the launch, curated content to inspire upcoming projects, and marketing and promotional opportunities.
Neptune’s home designers and specialists will be on hand to guide creatives through their collections and help them select the perfect designs to realise their vision. Once designers have chosen the right pieces for their project, the customer experience team will provide dedicated support to make sure everything reaches buyers safely and on time.

Prior to establishing its trade programme, Neptune has long proven itself a valuable resource for the design world. The company’s pledge to make furniture that lasts for 100 years or more takes a stand against the throwaway culture that’s still so prevalent in other parts of the industry.
With longevity at the forefront of everything Neptune does, the brand uses natural materials like solid oak and Carrara marble for their strength and timeless appeal, while firmly rejecting cheaper alternatives like MDF. Its approach to craftsmanship, meanwhile, draws inspiration from traditional cabinetmaking while harnessing the benefits of modern engineering.
Neptune’s own production house is powered by energy efficient heat pumps and reuses and recycles as many by-products as possible. Where they can’t make things themselves, Neptune partners with quality local suppliers wherever possible to keep their carbon footprint low. These include Bristol Weaving Mill, which is powered by 100% renewable energy, and Marlborough Tiles, who are based down the road from their Wiltshire head office.

Reputation is integral to the company, which is evident at every stage of the product lifestyle. Their diligent, cohesive approach to service extends from the design and development teams based at their Wiltshire HQ through to the drivers who deliver the finished piece to a customer’s door.
Their stores are further testament to their approach of doing things differently. Each one is designed to feel more like a home than a showroom – a place to relax and seek inspiration.
