Flying the flag for British Manufacturing.
For over 80 years, Denford has stood at the forefront of precision engineering, with pride, purpose, and innovation.
From our headquarters in West Yorkshire, we continue to design and manufacture high-quality CNC machines and advanced manufacturing solutions that support education, training, and industry across the UK and around the world.
Denford’s commitment to quality is at the core of everything we do. Every CNC machine is designed, built, and rigorously tested by our skilled engineers and technicians at Denford HQ. This hands-on approach allows us to maintain the highest standards of performance and reliability while nurturing the next generation of British engineering talent – something we care deeply about.
At every stage of the process, our dedicated team carries out meticulous inspections to ensure each machine meets our exacting standards. From careful assembly to final quality checks, our engineers take immense pride in their craftsmanship, guaranteeing that every Denford machine delivers exceptional performance – whether it’s destined for a UK classroom or a university on the other side of the world.
Supporting STEM, shaping futures
Our work goes beyond manufacturing. Denford plays a vital role in supporting STEM education across schools, colleges, and universities. Through strategic partnerships and involvement in initiatives like the STEM Racing (formerly F1 in Schools) Challenge, we inspire young minds and encourage practical learning.
But our impact doesn’t stop at the UK’s borders. Denford is proud to export both our machines and STEM Racing programs to educators and organisations around the globe. From Europe to Asia, the Americas to the Middle East, our solutions provide workshops with the technology and skills to inspire the next generation of engineers, designers, and innovators worldwide.
Backing British innovation, reaching the world
We believe in the power of British design and ingenuity. By keeping our manufacturing in the UK, we retain full control over our R&D process, enabling continuous innovation and rapid development. Whether it’s updating our software, refining machine performance, developing STEM Racing competition tracks, or enhancing user experience, everything we do is driven by a desire to keep British engineering ahead of the curve.
At the same time, we’re passionate about sharing this expertise with the world. Our commitment to export has seen Denford machines and STEM Racing initiatives become a recognised name in technical education globally, in over 70 countries. It’s this combination of British manufacturing excellence and international collaboration that ensures we continue to make a positive impact both at home and abroad.
Looking ahead with pride
As we look to the future, our mission remains clear: to champion British manufacturing, support skills development, and deliver world-class solutions that shape the engineers, designers, and innovators of tomorrow.
Being a British manufacturer isn’t just part of our history - it’s part of who we are. And we’re proud to keep building, creating, and innovating here in the UK while continuing to expand our global reach.
