About Us:
Robert Cairns began his career working in manufacturing and optical research.  In 1973 he was presented with an opportunity to begin his own business venture.  Quickly, his basement workshop was converted into a small scale production facility where Robert grew the business into a trusted name. 

Today, the Robert Cairns Company continues to grow with our new facility in Plaistow, NH.  The same level of personal service and commitment to quality continues to be our trademark today.
