About SPE

Our 28,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility is based right in the heart of the country, in North Staffordshire. We have four international airports within an hour’s drive, and are at the heart of an extensive road and rail network, making us easily accessible to our valued clients and for visiting them if needed, too.

The past four decades have seen us grow to a team of over 60 specialised and highly-skilled engineers who deliver the highest quality components to our client’s exacting standards, often to extremely tight deadlines. Our growth has been driven by continuous investment in the latest technology and manufacturing techniques, the development of a highly skilled work force and guaranteed high quality standards. We have built our reputation on communication and collaboration with our valued clients, and an adherence to the highest standards, as you will see on this website.

We are extremely blessed to have a wonderful, talented staff and a proactive, personable leadership team. We work with many huge companies from a variety of sectors that don’t just expect but actually need confidentiality as well as outstanding components. That’s second nature to us. The cliché of small enough to care but big enough to do a fantastic job isn’t a cliché if you partner with SPE Precision Components. Top-tier client-care comes as standard. But don’t just take our word for it – we’d love for you to visit our HQ.
