Bagnalls is a specialist national painting, decorating and industrial coatings company established in Yorkshire in 1875. They are a family business, with current Group Managing Director, Stephen Bagnall, the fifth generation to lead the company. Bagnalls moved to their new Head Office location, Penkridge, in Cleckheaton in 2024 which was officially opened by Kevin Sinfield OBE in 2025 to coincide with the company’s 150th anniversary.

Bagnalls Community Paintbrush scheme was established in 2012 with the purpose of donating surplus paints, but today it has evolved to support local communities and charitable causes with a wide range of projects, including the preparation and repainting of the railings at East Bierley War Memorial ahead of Remembrance Sunday in 2025. Bagnalls provided the paint and apprentices to complete the works free-of-charge after being introduced to the East Bierley Village Preservation Society by Tracey Scott-Milner from Kirklees Council.
