Services
Machining
Our precision machining services combine traditional engineering expertise with modern CNC technology. Specialising in complex components for oil, aerospace, and marine sectors, we maintain tolerances to 0.001mm using state-of-the-art equipment. With 45 years' experience serving major operators, our machinists deliver high-integrity parts meeting ISO 9001:2008 standards for critical applications.
Fabrication
Offering comprehensive metal fabrication solutions for industrial clients since 1976. Our capabilities include structural steelwork, pipework systems, and bespoke equipment manufacturing. The 22-strong team utilises advanced welding techniques and precision cutting tools to produce safety-critical components for offshore and onshore environments, adhering to strict quality protocols.
Waterjet
High-pressure waterjet cutting services for complex shapes in various materials. This cold-cutting process prevents material distortion while achieving tight tolerances. Our systems handle thicknesses up to 200mm, serving aerospace and oil sectors requiring burr-free components without heat-affected zones, maintaining material integrity for critical applications.
Bristling
Specialist bristling services for surface preparation and cleaning of industrial components. This technique effectively removes rust, scale, and coatings while creating optimal surface profiles for subsequent treatments. Used extensively in offshore and marine sectors, our bristling processes enhance coating adhesion and component longevity in harsh environments.
