Founded in 1964 by engineers Les White and Jack Blackman, Blackman & White (BW) remains a family-owned company.

Based in Essex, England – in a town where sailing is the local sport – our roots are in sail making and the maritime industry. Yet during the last five decades we have worked with clients from industries as diverse as aerospace and fashion.

We’re proud of our heritage which has seen us create a unique range of high quality machinery with longevity; pioneer multi-tool laser cutters within the textile world and; launch specialist cutting tools for the filtration and graphics industries. We’re always looking for new ways to showcase our cutting expertise.
