About the Employer
We are a small genuine family run company now in its 40th year.
Three family members are still employed by the company.
Nearly all of our work is completed on lathes, involving the use of conventional and CNC machines.
We specialise in machining materials which are used in oil and gas, aerospace, defence industries amongst others. Most of the materials that we machine are high temperature, high corrosion resistant materials which are consequently more difficult to machine that more common materials. Over the last 40 years we have established equipment and methods to enable us to machine these materials effectively.
We have also established long standing, trusted relationships with our customers who appreciate our ability to deal with their expensive and difficult materials.
