Solent Manufacturing was set up 1968 working as as a specialised metal fabricator serving companies in the home counties. In the intervening years the business has significantly grown, now being part of a larger group which includes Bigneat Containment Technology and EFCO Furnaces.

Solent's specialised fabrications are used world wide for applications in diverse industries, examples of which include Aerospace, Catering, Construction, Marine, Medical and Pharmaceuticals to name just a few.

As technology has moved forward so we have developed new areas of manufacturing expertise and productions skills. The management team at Solent has considerable combined experience and a network of contacts in other companies with complimentary abilities. They and not afraid to sub-contract a few processes needed to finish and deliver the finest finished products on time and to budget. 

"We are looking forward to the future with continued enthusiasm and a loyal commitment to our customers"

"To continually invest in our company, both in terms of machinery and personnel. To have the capabilities and expertise that in the South of England are hard to find. To give an attention to detail and provide a personal service, irrespective of project size.

Our intention is to provide you with the manufacturing support you need, enabling you to concentrate on marketing and service, rather than the logistics of manufacture. To provide quality products at all times.

Our aim is not only to meet your expectations but to exceed them, offering first class quality, on time, every time".
