Corbeau

Corbeau Seats Ltd was the very first motorsport seat manufacturer in the world. The original ‘Corbeau Equip’ was lanched back in 1963 by its original owner, Colin Folwell. Colin found that the standard/original road seats in his race car did not offer the support or protection that was required for the tremendous speeds that race cars could produce at the time. He went on to develop the first ever race car seats here in St Leonards-On-Sea, East Sussex. Fast forward to 2023 and 60 years on, we are still proud to be manufacturing motorsport racing seats, classic bucket seats, reclining bucket seats, track day seats, lotus replacement seats and racing harnesses.

​Corbeau has some great racing heritage and in 1992 we became the first British manufacturer to acquire FIA homologation on our motorsport seats.
