75 YEARS OF PRESSWORK EXPERTISE
Our History
Operating for over 70 years, Brigham has grown from a small local supplier to a globally recognised name synonymous with outstanding quality and customer care.
GKN Birmingham provided Hugh and Margaret Brigham with their first ever works order, and that relationship has grown to a point where we deliver to GKN facilities all over the world, as well as other leading business such as JCB, AGA, and Honeywell.
Over the years we have grown organically, and entered new markets like white, yellow, and medical goods, where we are renowned for the manufacture of high quality, low to high volume presswork.
