Now April Fools is over... we can genuinely reflect on taking home two awards in the space of one month! Yes, even we are surprised!

First Dennis Eagle's Platinum Supplier award, followed by receiving SME of the Year for manufacturing with the North East Automotive Alliance on Friday.

It is a fantastic recognition of the hard work and dedication across our team and the investment and growth strategy of our owners Newship Group.

From our Wolverhampton facility, we continue to support leading OEMs and Tier 1 and 2 manufacturers, particularly in the North East with high quality metal pressings, welded assemblies and laser fabrication and it's great to see that effort recognised on a wider stage.

A huge thank you to our entire team, the North East Automotive Alliance and partners who make achievements like this possible.
