The power of collective engineering
About Pure Network
Pure Network offers a unique approach to the manufacturing and production of high quality engineering components that enables organisations from all industry sectors to work directly with seven of the leading engineering companies in the UK and Europe through one account-managed point of contact.
Collectively, we have an extensive and diverse range of capabilities. We work together utilising all our technologies and expertise to support anything from a single prototype to a full turnkey project through one supply chain vertical for our customers.
Our members have been established for over 200 years in total, which makes Pure Network one of the most experienced engineering supply partners in the business.
I believe the true key to our success is the combination of our members. Every member was personally selected not only for its unrivalled experience, expertise, and high level of technology, but also the relationship we have built on trust, honesty and integrity. Each of our seven members is elite in its own right, but together we create an exclusive and formidable manufacturing source.
Working with Us
We work with companies worldwide, so that time and distance are no barriers. We keep in contact regularly throughout every project, either in person or the latest video technology. And we only use approved global delivery partners.
Maximise your time by minimising effort. Exploit our collective capability and allow us to project manage your engineered parts and processes from across the Pure Network members.
Streamline your supply chain, by working with seven established engineering companies through one source.
Work with a partner who knows what you need. We provide dedicated account management and pride ourselves on getting to know your timescales, price requirements and processes to deliver what you need every time.
Explore our extensive capabilities. Across our members we have a diverse range of skills and technology enabling us to work on projects involving all metals, composites, additive manufacturing, and sheet metal fabrication. In the rare cases we can’t provide what you need we’re happy to recommend any of our trusted suppliers.
Full visibility of your project’s status. We understand communication is key in order for you to plan production. So, if you need a quick update or a timely review, we will arrange that for you.
Around the clock support through one point of contact. We handle any enquiries and let the engineers concentrate on making your parts.
We have an open door policy and believe its valuable to get to know our members. We can arrange site visits, group meetings or monthly reviews. And we’ll keep you up to date with the latest news from Pure Network.
Tell us what will help you. We’re always happy to invest time and money to ensure we have everything you need for Pure Network to become a long-term partner.
We support military, commercial and private Aerospace clients providing R&D prototypes to maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) and high volume production.
Our Sectors
With our extensive and diverse range of knowledge, technologies and capacity, we supply manufactured components into all industry sectors. We hold ISO9001 approval for quality assurance and AS9100 accreditation to support flight-critical parts and related sectors.
Aerospace
We manufacture and supply engine and structural parts, landing gear systems and aircraft interiors. Pure Network members are AS9100 accredited and use the latest inspection and metrology equipment to assure quality and traceability providing First Article Inspection Reports for every part.
Defence & Security
Supporting Defence, Security and Military partners and operations is a critical part of our manufacturing DNA. Whether we are making an aviation ejector seat, communication device or parts for a military vehicle or fighter jet every process is account managed to ensure we meet the sector’s strict and demanding guidelines.
We have been supporting Automotive companies for many years providing a wide range of components using our specific technologies, capabilities and experience.
Our Sectors continued
Automotive
We regularly manufacture suspension parts such as knuckles, wishbones, tension arms and control arms. ‘Trim and final’ components including internal trim, bezels, air vents, paddles and pedals are all machined from solid for the latest super and hyper cars.
We also provide composite tooling and pattern making, and aluminium and carbon fibre insert machining for car trims and accessories.
Motorsport
Located in the Motorsport Valley we are one of the leading suppliers to all teams in Formula 1 and Formula E. We also support many other categories including World Endurance Championship, World Rally Championship and Superbike World Championship.
Our Motorsport clients not only design complex parts in exotic materials, but also demand they are manufactured perfectly first time and ahead of schedule. So our project and account management services ensures everything is always on track. From metallic components for suspensions, engines and drive trains, to composite tooling, pattern making and aluminium and carbon fibre insert machining, we have the technology and experience needed to provide all Motorsport components.
We are proud to supply life-changing, and in some cases life-saving implants and special equipment to our Medical and Dental OEM clients.
Our Sectors continued
Medical & Dental
Our project management services and provision of full traceability for every part together ensures we adhere to the Medical sector’s critical standards.
We have extensive experience and knowledge of machining exotic materials that are safe to enter the human body and provide CNC machined components of all metal types. We also have a dedicated additive manufacturing facility for 3D printing of metallic parts that cannot be machined conventionally.
Space & Science
A major proportion of our manufacturing projects are within the Space and Science sectors.
With our combined engineering knowledge of over 200 years and through our project management service, we are often integral to the design and R&D stages of new developments.
Once a concept is proven and ready for production, we work directly with the design engineers to manufacture exactly to their requirements including critical and high value one off parts.
We manufacture wind turbine blades, nose cones and housings accurately on our large 5 axis milling technology, which is capable of producing parts up to 26m long.
Our Sectors continued
Energy
The wind energy market is growing rapidly. We are closely involved in this market where the combination of CNC milling capabilities and knowledge of composite processing enables us to provide a diverse range of top-quality components.
Electric Mobility
Electric mobility is an established way to travel and now electrification is also starting to be exploited in many other sectors. We work with an extensive range of partners to manufacture parts for electric motors, power trains and batteries.
Our long-established relationships and experience in the Marine industry ensures we are a first choice supplier.
Our Sectors continued
Marine
We manufacture seamless plugs and direct moulds with the utmost precision for renowned yacht and super yacht builders worldwide.
We produce custom-made fenders up to 26 metres long from high-quality soft foam, off the machine or in a high gloss DD coating for RIBs, tenders and super yachts.
We also manufacture luxury interior and exterior accessories that are aesthetically perfect yet functional and hard-wearing.
Architecture & Art
Our unique capability of machining composite parts up to 26 metres and metallic parts up to 20 metres enables us to work with architects, construction companies and interior designers worldwide.
Our projects include designing and manufacturing new creations to reproducing and replacing facades, awnings, entrances, walls and displays. We also support established and new designers and artists in creating and bringing to life large and complex sculptures.
