James Latham is one of the UK’s largest independent trade distributors of timber, panels and decorative surfaces.

We supply products to a broad range of trade customers, from contractors and merchants, through to designers and makers. Please note: due to the nature of our business and our delivery vehicles, we are unable to supply to the general public.

With a history reaching back over 260 years, Lathams have always been innovators. We consistently push the boundaries of materials selection, from our origins in timber products, panels and doors, through to the modern day, where we sit as one of the sectors’ most recognised suppliers of cutting edge materials technologies, including decorative laminates, veneers, thermoplastics and acrylics.

Our people are as important as our product ranges. Experienced industry professionals teamed with specialist product managers mean we are able to offer solutions and advice in the most challenging of applications.

Operating from twelve branches throughout the UK and Ireland, we work with merchants & distributors, construction professionals, designers, architects and more, enabling the most demanding designs and construction projects to become reality.

With this knowledge, experience and product range at our disposal, James Latham are the all round answer to your construction and design needs.
