Established in 1977, Taylor Engineering Ltd has built nearly five decades of expertise within the aerospace sector. From its foundation, the company has operated exclusively in high-integrity aerospace manufacturing, supporting the industry’s demand for precision, reliability and uncompromising quality standards.
Originally engaged in broader aerospace engineering activities, the business has evolved to specialise exclusively in precision cylindrical grinding. Today, Taylor Engineering focuses on CNC cylindrical grinding, universal grinding and the finishing of HVOF-coated components, supplying high-accuracy round parts for critical aerospace applications. This strategic progression reflects both industry demand and the company’s commitment to technical excellence in a highly specialised discipline.
In June 2018, Taylor Engineering achieved AS9100 certification, reinforcing its dedication to aerospace quality management, full traceability and continuous improvement. Combined with ISO 9001 compliance and Rolls-Royce approval, our systems ensure rigorous process control and consistent delivery to exacting aerospace standards.
With decades of sector knowledge and a clear technical focus, Taylor Engineering continues to provide precision grinding solutions built on experience, quality and long-term industry trust.
Combining five decades of experience with the very latest technology and a workforce encompassing a breadth of technical skill, the Metalite Group is an industry leader in precision machining and engineering.
The group consists of four specialist divisions including design and manufacture of high quality, high specification components for the medical, automotive, aerospace, injection moulding and food industries.
Metalite Engineering was founded in 1973, and as its reputation for high standards grew, so did the Group, with Taylor Engineering and Attica Critical Components being added to the company portfolio.
All four divisions share the same high standards of quality, accuracy, and service, ensuring that the tools and components produced are exactly as our clients require.

Design and manufacture of injection mould tools for the production of thin-wall packaging, caps and closures and medical part applications.
Established in 1973, operating with a highly skilled team, we’re able to design and build optimal-performance injection mould tools to the highest specification.
