Services
CNC Machining
Our CNC machining division utilises advanced turning and milling equipment to produce components with tolerances down to 0.001mm. Capable of handling exotic materials including titanium and inconel, we deliver precision parts for aerospace and nuclear applications. The integration of Y-axis milling centres eliminates secondary setups, reducing lead times by 40% while maintaining dimensional accuracy.
Fabrication & Welding
Specialising in stainless steel and aluminium fabrication, our facilities handle projects from prototype assemblies to large-scale industrial installations. Certified welders employ TIG, MIG, and MMA techniques to ISO 15614 standards. The metalworking department features 170-tonne press brakes and NC rolling machines for complex formed components in sheet metal and tubing.
3D Design Services
Our SolidWorks specialists provide end-to-end design solutions from concept to manufacture. Using 3D scanning technology, we reverse-engineer components with 1mm accuracy. The design team supports clients through CAD validation, finite element analysis, and production planning, ensuring optimal manufacturability and cost efficiency for complex engineering projects.
Hygienic Pipework
We design and install stainless steel pipework systems for critical environments including food processing and pharmaceutical facilities. Our TIG-welded hygienic pipework eliminates bacterial growth through autogenous welding techniques. Compliant with ASME BPE standards, these systems feature orbital welding for consistent bead profiles in clean-in-place (CIP) applications.
Plant Servicing
Our 24/7 rapid response team provides emergency repairs and planned maintenance for industrial equipment. Certified confined space operatives perform on-site servicing in hazardous environments. The preventative maintenance programmes reduce unplanned downtime by 65% through condition monitoring and scheduled interventions across nuclear and utilities sectors.

Report
From the initial discussions to the receipt of the final product, we at Salt Express cannot fault Berry and Escott. The understanding they have for our engineering requirements is second to none. The professionalism they show is wonderful and we do recommend them to other companies who require high class work by first class people.
