Manufacturing

The Manufacturing sector in the UK still accounts for around 8% of the workforce and 10-12% of the country's national output. The sector is large and diverse and covers everything for making widgets in high volumes, through car and vehicle manufacture to engineered components for aerospace, defence and specialised indiustries. 

If you include products made from metal, plastic, paper, rubber and ceramics and add in chemicals, minerals and aggregates you can see how truly diverse it is.

Our clients across the sector include small manufacturers of high volume products, multi-national OEM's, technical instrument makers, global component suppliers and specialised concerns that make complex components.
