Designed, tooled, laid up, cured, trimmed and assembled on one site, to the standards of the world's most demanding industries.
Design, manufacture, inspection and finishing on a single site. Nothing leaves the building or joins anyone else's queue.
Working from a drawing, a CAD model, or the part itself where no drawing exists.
Pulled from the walk-in freezer and laid by hand to the ply book in a cleanroom.
Heat and pressure together, or one of two ovens where the part calls for it.
Send us an existing part and we will scan it, rebuild it as a working model, and make it.
Tooling, jigs and functional prototypes overnight rather than sourced out.
Separate release and breakout room, a trim room, and a controlled assembly room.
No drawing or CAD? No problem. Send us the part or a photograph and we will scan it, rebuild the model and make it from that.
Start an enquiry →Our autoclave takes parts up to 1.5 by 3 metres. Larger assemblies are bonded up from cured sections in the assembly room.
Six sectors, one workshop. Pick one to see the sort of work we do.
Most composite parts pass through three or four companies before they reach you. Ours pass through one.
Most of our work is covered by a non-disclosure agreement, so we have described these by sector and process rather than by customer.
Laid, cured and trimmed in house for a Formula 1 supplier on a mid-season turnaround. We made the tooling too, so the first part and the twentieth came off the same mould.
They said it couldn't be done.Now it's there on the bench.
A good part of what we make started as a job somebody else turned down.
Send us the partIf yours is not here, the quickest route is to pick up the phone or send us whatever you have.
Yes. Send us the part, send us a photograph of it, or just talk to us about your idea. If you have the component we will scan it and rebuild it as a working model. If you only have a problem to solve, tell us about it and we will work out whether carbon fibre is the right answer.
There isn't one, at either end. We make single components and prototypes, and we run repeat production for customers who need the same part month after month. Tell us the quantity and we will price it.
The autoclave envelope is 1.5 by 3 metres, which sets the limit for a single cured part. Larger assemblies are bonded up from cured sections in the assembly room.
Most enquiries are quoted the same working day. Because design, tooling and manufacture are all in the building, we are not waiting on three other suppliers to price their portion.
No. Design, tooling, lay-up, curing, trimming and assembly all happen on our own site.
Yes, and most of our work already is. It is why the projects above are described by sector and process rather than by customer name.
A drawing, a photograph, or just a description. Whatever you have is enough to get a price, and we reply to most enquiries the same working day.
