About us

Family Origins


Alan Crowshaw and Pete Walker started selling foam filled pillows and cushions from market stalls in the early 70's.


Soon, a small factory, machinery and additional personnel were required to meet ever increasing demand. 


Through the years, the Foam Conversion business grew rapidly, moving from a small manufacturing unit on Gorsey Bank to the factory on Water Lane that we occupy today.

Wirksworth's Largest Employer


A satellite factory was built in the 90's so we could cope with the ever increasing demand for sponges and shoulder pads...


Investment in technology and CNC machines allowed us to branch into the busy furniture sector.

Present Day


Under the leadership of Mike Crowshaw, the Peak Converters family has now grown to around 80 people.   


Our hard working staff have a wealth of knowledge collected over many years. 


Armed with our fully integrated machinery, bespoke MRP and scanning systems, our team can complete small or large batch production runs with incredibly short lead times.
