How we’re different
Four things most shops don’t do.
The price is on the screen
One rate card. Setup per line, spread across your quantity.
A batch of one is normal
Minimum line charge £8.95 ex VAT, £10.74 inc.
Cut, folded, welded, coated in-house
One job card, not four suppliers.
We flag a drawing that won’t work
Holes too small, features too close. Before you pay.
