How it all began with a few pipe handles…

About GB Salvage

It all began with some pipe handles back in 2013.  I wanted some for my garage and decided to source the parts and make a range of furniture and lights out of them.  It sounds so simple but it quickly got out of control.

Growing to Industrial Salvage…

About GB Salvage

We quickly moved onto much more industrial salvage and being based in Devon we focused on maritime salvage to begin with.  You’ll still see a wide range of reclaimed ship lights and explosion proof fittings.

Salvaging Plane Parts…

About GB Salvage

It was probably around 2015 we had our first introduction to the salvaging of planes and plane parts.  It didn’t take long to realise that this was the area we wanted to focus our attention on – we love the heavily industrial look and feel of plane parts and the engineering (for obvious reason) is exceptional and often beautiful once stripped back.
