Established over 40 years ago by Kevin McOscar, the business is now managed by the second generation of the McOscar family, with Managing Director Conor McOscar, Production Director Austin McOscar and Sales Director Damien Connolly.
The business started out as a manufacturer of wrapped mouldings and sold the products throughout Ireland, the UK and further afield. As new technologies evolved the business was always at the forefront of investment and development and were one of the first manufacturers of vinyl wrapped doors and accessories in the UK and Ireland, with production starting in the early 1990’s. Five-piece doors and laser edged doors were added to the range as the business continued to expand and develop.
The superb facilities in Cookstown, Northern Ireland
Today the company headquarters based in Cookstown, Co Tyrone is made up of over 250,000 sq ft of manufacturing facilities equipped with some of the most modern equipment in Europe producing over 25,000 kitchen, bedroom and bathroom door frontals per week, plus 50,000 linear meters of wrapped mouldings and associated accessories.
Sustainability has also been a key driver as the company has evolved and today the factory has its own solar panels contributing 35% of the daily energy needs. All wood waste is also burned on site heating the factories, office and painting facilities. All timber based panels are also responsibly sourced and all products carry the FSC certification.
In order to make the products readily available to the market Trade Mouldings Distribution was established 25 years ago and today operates from specially designed warehouse facilities at its headquarters in Cookstown, Dublin and Rochdale in Greater Manchester. With over 150,000 sq ft of stock, distribution and storage facilities the company is well positioned to deliver its products on a next day service through the UK and Ireland.

Sales Director Damien Connolly comments: “At Trade Mouldings we always aim to put the customer at the forefront of everything we do. We like to keep our products as readily available as we can in the markets we operate in, hence we have three strategically positioned distribution centres to service Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and the UK.
"Having the stock on the ground where it is needed has been key to our success and growth over the years. Where a bespoke Made to Order product is required, most ranges have this offer giving installers and designers maximum flexibility on responsive lead times.
“As new technologies have become available we have always been pioneers and first to marketplace, not only in the beginings of the company with wrapped mouldings, but also with vinyl-wrapped doors, five-piece door production, and more recently, with laser edged door production.
"Trade Mouldings’ customers can rest assured that the products are manufactured to the highest standards and the products are tested and approved to FIRA Gold and ISO 9001.”
