What we do for automotive
Automotive is where BPL started, and it is still at the core of the business. Much of our growth since 2004 is built on delivering complex body-in-white products, particularly pressings and bracketry, for vehicle makers who expect them right first time.
We work at the front end of new product development. That means engineering parts alongside your design team, simulating the forming and the long-term performance of the tool before any steel is cut, and then building the tools, pressing, trimming, welding and inspecting under one group.
What we make
- Body-in-white pressings and reinforcements
- Brackets, mounts and cross-members
- Heat shields and formed aluminium panels
- Welded sub-assemblies
- Prototype and pre-production builds
- Low and medium volume production parts
