Bruderer opens new Telford manufacturing facility
High-speed press manufacturer Bruderer has opened a new 10,000 square metre centre of manufacturing excellence in Telford. The company has moved its entire operation from its base in Luton to the new modern facility, which offers a competence centre capable of providing live demonstrations of new presses, fully certified pre-owned machines, and fully integrated turnkey solutions.
For the first time in its 57-year history, the firm will have a purpose-built location to give customers a first-hand insight into its latest technology, ancillary equipment (including servo feeders and decoilers) and multi-progression press tool-proving systems.
The move has also seen Bruderer UK increase its direct workforce to 14, as it looks to drive innovation in the production of pressed parts and components for the automotive, aerospace, construction, electronics, EV, food, medical and renewables sectors.

Adrian Haller, managing director at Bruderer UK, said: “This isn’t just an investment in our business, it’s an investment in UK manufacturing. We want to show companies that we are here for the long haul, and we are serious about supporting our wide array of UK clients for another five decades. Being able to build a factory from scratch is a fantastic opportunity. We’ve brought together the best engineering minds and the latest technology to create what we believe is a true centre of excellence for presses and associated products.
“A massive 25 tonne crane dominates the workshop area and allows us to easily move around the presses we are refurbing, whilst the showroom has been designed to showcase up to two turnkey lines, including servo feeders and decoilers. We can even prove out tools on the machines to show customers exactly what we can do.”
Haller did not shy away from addressing the broader challenges facing UK manufacturing. He used completion of the new factory to call on the government to reverse recent tax changes and deliver a fully funded Industrial Strategy to support SMEs and make the UK more competitive on the global stage, he added: “We’ve placed our faith in UK manufacturing, now, it’s time for the government to do the same. We need Starmer and Reeves to reboot the economy and introduce policies that actively foster growth and support companies like ours to thrive.”
