MANUFACTURING, MOTORSPORT & DISTRIBUTION SUPPORT
Northampton sits at the heart of the UK's motorsport corridor — with Silverstone 15 minutes away — and remains a major distribution hub (Brackmills, Swan Valley) and home to a long-standing footwear and leather-goods sector now transitioning to advanced manufacturing. We regularly deliver for:
intake brackets, ducting, livery brackets and paddock fixtures. PLA for fit-check, PETG or ASA for on-car test, SLA grey resin for visual prototypes. Rush turnaround on race weekends.
Brackmills and Swan Valley operations rely on quick-turn sorting jigs, scanner mounts, label-applicator parts and bespoke tooling. PETG, ABS and nylon for shop-floor durability.
Northampton's heritage shoe-making sector uses us for last-prototyping, custom leather-stamping fixtures, edge-finishing jigs and replacement parts for legacy machinery.
engineering and product-design student projects, research-team prototypes and one-off rigs. Academic discounts available on student or research-team ID.
