August Blog – Why choose Grenville Engineering & UK manufacturing?

With the effects and uncertainty of Brexit, Covid-19 and the recent fuel hike, supporting UK manufacturing is crucial for the economy, and we at Grenville are here to help your business. Here are some of the benefits of working with Grenville-Engineering. Greater control over communication Being able to meet in person and have a straightforward two-way conversation are two benefits. Our Sales Director Stuart is always happy to visit any location throughout the UK to talk through the initial stages of the product development. We help streamline the process with good communication and can quickly provide prototypes and samples. We have strong relationships with many customers and class many long-standing customers as partners to which we have developed a structured quoting system tailored to their requirements. High level of control over the quality Quality control is essential to our business and constantly improves our systems, driven by our customer needs. We keep our costs competitive by maintaining efficient processes and investing in state-of-the-art machinery and a skilled workforce. Accredited with ISO9001 assures our customers that they will receive consistent quality products and service. We offer factory tours so you can see first-hand the quality of our products and services. We pride ourselves on our production transparency. Shorter lead times With less distance to travel, lead times are reduced, which could lead to more sales per year and beat your competitors to market. Reduced transport costs As well as shorter lead times, we will save you on supply costs. Our transport fleet and trusted couriers can deliver nationwide and on time. Saving money on transport means more of your cost price is going directly towards the manufacturing and quality of the product. Less risk in the supply chain There have been many Brexit-related issues for companies dealing with overseas manufacturers. Keeping your supply chain UK based has fewer associated risks. Smaller minimum order quantities We understand that many of our customers can’t always commit or need large quantity orders. We can offer flexibility with one-offs and smaller regular orders, which can help with cash flow control. We can also provide stock holding solutions to support our customers, keeping production costs low. Lower carbon footprint Products don’t have as far to travel, so less fuel and, in turn, less environmental damage. At Grenville Engineering, we have recently moved some of our company vehicles over to electric, upgraded our main site building to energy-efficient windows, and replaced the lighting with LED throughout the offices and factory.
