Modern machinery

Our investment in modern, efficient machinery provides highly repeatable quality products whilst our special purpose machines will produce high volume components. Prototypes can be produced with a short lead time and we can assist with rapid implementation of design modifications.

Quality team

Ultimately, these strengths result in our ability to provide and guarantee reliable and repeatable processes, allowing you to be confident that you will receive the right product to the agreed quality. We have a dedicated Quality team who oversee all activities and processes undertaken – obviously everyone is responsible for quality and we spend much time training and ensuring we have the correctly documented QA standards for every aluminium extrusion component we produce, no matter which member of our team produces it.

Our Quality team co-ordinates our work towards all the quality standards we maintain and are independently audited for. The company is fully conversant with APQP disciplines & the important administration required for this.

High vendor rating

ABL is also very proud of our proven record of high vendor rating scores and low PPM’s which we achieve across the millions of aluminium extrusion components we have supplied. A further benefit of our close supply chain management within the automotive sector is that naturally we apply this quality ethos and attention to detail to all the other market sectors and customers we serve.

All in all, ABL has the capabilities and experience to offer you the very best value service around to the quality standards you demand. Put very simply – allow us to let you concentrate on your core business activities and you can be confident that we’ll supply you with the right quality each and every time.
