AV Connection Panels
We design and manufacture bespoke AV connection panels for floor boxes, wall mounts, and 19 rack systems. Our panels come fully engraved with client specifications and populated with required connections. We offer complete back box integration and support complex multi-colour logo reproduction through advanced screen printing techniques.
Laser Cutting
Our laser cutting services deliver high-precision metal components with clean edges and minimal material waste. This technology enables intricate pattern cutting and consistent replication for both small and large production runs while maintaining dimensional accuracy across various metal types.
Powder-coating
We apply durable powder-coated finishes in any RAL colour to match existing environments. This eco-friendly process creates robust protective layers that resist chipping, fading, and wear while offering unlimited colour and texture possibilities for both functional and aesthetic requirements.
Engraving
Our engraving services combine traditional techniques with computer-programmed precision for simple lettering to complex technical engravings. We ensure permanent, high-visibility markings on metal surfaces that withstand industrial environments and maintain legibility over extended periods.
Fabrication
We offer complete metal fabrication from cutting and bending to welding and assembly. Our facilities handle mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium, producing structural components and enclosures with tight tolerances. We maintain quality control throughout the manufacturing process for consistent, durable results.
