Perfect Collars - The Value of Tradition & Quality
Although fashions and style change over the years, we at Barkers have always realised the value of tradition and quality.
We actively take part in the manufacture of over 90% of the world production of new detachable stiff collars. It is estimated that the world market is somewhere in the region of 65,000 - 80,000 new collars sold every year.
We launder in excess of 60,000 detachable stiff collars every year and the numbers are continuing to grow. By ensuring that antique equipment is maintained, and that the craftsmen's skills are passed on, Barker Collars has become the largest launderer of detachable stiff collars in the world.
