// commercial & subcontract
A subcontract partner you can plan around.
For manufacturers, OEMs and busy fabricators, we combine responsive people, modern machinery and bespoke workflow software to quote quickly and turn CAD files into accurate, inspected parts. Laser cut, form on our three Bystronic press brakes, insert, weld and finish — all under one roof in Andover.
What we take on
Outsource a single process or your whole sheet-metal package — we'll flex to fit your production.
Cut-only profiles
Flat blanks and profiles nested and laser cut from your DXF or DWG, ready for you to fold and weld in-house — fast, with no tooling cost.
Cut, bend & weld
Complete fabricated parts and weldments built on modern equipment to your drawing — enclosures, chassis, brackets, panels, frames and assemblies.
Batch & production runs
Repeatable batches with first-off approval and consistent results from the first part to the thousandth, scheduled to your call-offs.
Finished & ready to fit
Deburred, powder coated, fastener-inserted and inspected, delivered ready to go straight onto your line or out to your customer.
Overflow & backup capacity
A reliable second source when your own shop is at capacity or a supplier lets you down — we can step in at short notice.
Kitting & scheduled supply
Parts kitted by assembly and called off against a schedule or blanket order, so the right parts land when your line needs them.
Capability & tolerances
CNC fibre laser cutting up to 20mm mild steel, 20mm stainless and 15mm aluminium, on sheet up to 2995 × 1495mm. Three top-spec Bystronic press brakes provide flexible operator-led folding to repeatable bend allowances, with one robotic cell for suitable high-volume repeat parts. MIG and TIG welding by time-served welders, with weld dressing where the finish demands it. In-house powder coating completes the route.
We work to your drawing tolerances and call out anything that's tight to hold before we cut, so there are no surprises at goods-in.
Materials & finishes
Mild steel (CR4, S275), stainless 304 and 316, aluminium and brass — from stock or your own free-issue material. Finishes include powder coating across the RAL range, brushed and grained stainless, deburring, passivation, and arranged galvanising or plating where specified.
PPAP-style first-article sign-off, material certs and a goods-in inspection step are available for regulated work. See our materials guide.
How we work with you
Set up once, then order against a drawing pack or schedule with a single point of contact.
Send the pack
Email your DXF, DWG or STEP files with a drawing, material spec, finish and quantities — one-off, batch or annual volume.
Fast, accurate quote
Our team and bespoke software return clear pricing, volume breaks and a dependable lead time you can build into your own production plan.
First-off approval
For production parts we run a first-off for you to approve before committing the batch — your spec, locked in.
Run & call off
Order against a schedule or blanket order; parts arrive finished, inspected and kitted, ready for your line.
Already a trade buyer? A trade account adds volume pricing, priority scheduling, a named contact and 30-day terms on approval — so your subcontract work runs on rails.
