Patrick McGrath began working with solid surface in 1984 as an employee of Bingley Son & Follet, one of the world’s largest Corian fabricators at the time. However, he soon recognized that the business was not operating very efficiently, so he formed a partnership with David Axworthy, another employee of Bingley.
McGrath and Axworthy founded Counter Production together in 1986 in a bid to bring a higher level of professionalism to the solid-surface fabrication and installation industry. They started by offering clients a strict installation schedule, and they began templating all of their projects to minimize on-site time.
Counter Production, based in the U.K., continued to grow, and in 2003, after Axworthy’s retirement, McGrath invested further capital into the company to upgrade equipment with the latest technology, including a CNC machine, thermoforming equipment and digital templating equipment.
Today, Counter Production employs 50 people and experiences annual revenue of approximately $5 million strictly from wholesale clients.
