On Thursday 29 January, 2026, Expromet Technologies Group, a leading precision engineering group serving global OEMs, Tier 1s and associated supply chains, announced the acquisition of Tiverton Fabrications Limited, a renowned and trusted provider of fabricated and welded solutions.
The acquisition will further strengthen Expromet’s position as a turnkey manufacturing partner, broadening its UK footprint and allowing the group to offer fully integrated casting, machining, welding, fabrication and assembly across its sites.
Tiverton Fabrications, based in Tiverton, Devon, specializes in performance-critical welded solutions such as bespoke vessels, vacuum chambers, cylinders, and tubes in a variety of materials including aluminum, stainless steel, and specialty alloys. Their clients span across the UK and worldwide. By joining Expromet, Tiverton Fabrications will benefit from being part of a robust and high-growth organization, while also providing customers with access to advanced engineering processes across the Group.
Rob Guest, CEO of Expromet Technologies Group, stated, “We are delighted to welcome Tiverton Fabrications to Expromet. This acquisition marks another important step in Expromet’s strategy to build a group of complementary precision engineering businesses. Tiverton Fabrications’ wealth of expertise across engineering processes is a natural extension of our existing casting, welding, and machining capabilities, allowing us to offer customers a comprehensive manufacturing solution from concept to finished assembly.”
Noel Sugden, Production Director of Tiverton Fabrications, added, “Joining Expromet opens up new opportunities for our customers and our team, and we look forward to working with Expromet Group. Expromet’s investment, technical capability, and global industry experience will allow us to expand our capabilities while continuing to deliver the high standards and personal service that our customers expect.”
Together with Haworth Castings (sand and gravity die casting), Investacast (investment casting and pressure die casting), and Metaltech Precision (CNC machining and fabrication), Tiverton Fabrications will bolster Expromet’s domestic manufacturing scope as part of a unique end-to-end offering.

By integrating these complementary capabilities, Expromet aims to help customers de-risk and streamline their supply chains, improve traceability, and gain greater assurance of quality and delivery performance.
