As you read this, it is quite likely that the car you drive or the packaged food and drink you have consumed today has some small part of our expertise associated with it. Founded in 1961 by the late John Tree MBE, we are the largest, privately-owned design and build toolmaking company in Europe. Now led by Gareth Jenkins, who started his career in the metal packaging industry, our senior management team is made up of professionals from internal promotions and external appointments, each bringing with them a specialist technical discipline. Our current facility in Llantrisant, South Wales, was opened in 2006 and is a model of excellence in a wide range of technical disciplines, housing the very latest technology for the design and manufacture of high precision tooling. We have trained engineers at all levels since the very beginning and our apprenticeship scheme has become the benchmark for many companies in the industry, representing the best workplace vocational training to degree level. Many of our current employees joined us as apprentices and have worked their way up through the company, some now forming part of the senior management team. If you are looking for a total toolmaking service from concept to component, we can offer you a first class service based on highly skilled people, leading edge technology, innovation and confidentiality.

We are a manufacturer of high precision steel tooling and components serving market segments involved in: Stamping, Injection Molding, Metal Forming / Fabricating, Ammunition, Electronics, Automotive, Aerospace, Medical, Dental, Pharmaceutical and Biotech. We will continue to invest in our processes, core competencies, company knowledge/skills, and capital equipment to meet the evolving needs of our customers, offering a continually expanding portfolio of products and services. In doing so we will develop customer-supplier integration and relationships which anticipate their product needs and simplify their decision to make us their one stop supplier of choice.

We will grow our company based on sound market intelligence of the industries and customers we pursue. We will synthesize this market intelligence with our engineering, customer service, and manufacturing expertise to manufacture products to print, co-develop products, and solely develop products for our customers. In doing so we will create mutual reliance and stronger relationships with our customers that go beyond the typical customer-supplier relationships. We will consider a partnership with or acquisition of companies that are synergistic with our vision. Our ambitious goal should always be to strive towards knowing what our customers are thinking and be in a position to anticipate and fulfill their needs.

Through leveraging and building upon a well defined set of core competencies which cascade from our sound market intelligence, we will look across many market segments, customers, and products to relentlessly pursue product adjacencies related to our core competencies. We will use a disciplined approach in choosing our product adjacencies to insure we build predictable and sustainable growth in the near term while gaining a better vantage point to expand our product adjacencies well beyond what was imaginable to us years prior.
