Who Are We ?

Durham Precision Engineering

 

We were formed in January 1985 by Tom Stoddart to provide a sub-contract tool room and precision machining service to companies throughout the North East of England.

 

In 1992 we re-located to a 6,500 square feet purpose built facility which, due to our continual growth, was extended in 1997 to 13,000 square feet.

 

Durham Precision Engineering is committed to developing and training the people it employs. This is highlighted by the fact that almost 30% of employees have come through our own apprenticeship programme.

 

On going training with all of our staff is openly encouraged, particularly in relation to developments in new technology, this gives us a strong yet very flexible workforce.
