BCB is a renowned British brand specializing in the production of equipment for safety, survival, and everyday use in the field. Its offer is directed towards both the military and rescue services, as well as individual customers. BCB products are highly appreciated among survival, outdoor, and bushcraft enthusiasts, proving excellent during expeditions, camping, and in emergency situations.
Origin and beginnings of the brand
The beginnings of the BCB brand date back to 1854 when Dr. Browne developed a cough syrup that was sent to British soldiers fighting during the Crimean War. The name BCB comes from the initials "Browne's Cough Bottle," which became the official name of the company upon its registration. In 1949, the business was taken over by a Cardiff pharmacist, Deryck Howell, and since then, BCB has remained a family-run company led by the Howell family.
Development and innovations
A breakthrough moment in the brand's history was the meeting with representatives of the British army in the 1950s, which resulted in the design of the world's first liferaft survival kit. Since then, BCB has consistently pursued a strategy of continuous innovation, resulting in numerous patented products. The brand has gained recognition not only from customers but also has been awarded prestigious awards, including twice the Queen Awards for Export Achievement and numerous industry and technology awards.
