Serving customers nationwide, we do all we can to meet their aluminium profiling requirements.
Salesmade was established on 21st November 1980 by Rodney Lugton and Alan Matthewman, with Brian Dudley appointed as production manager and Andy Seal joining to run the sheet metal department shortly afterwards.
With considerable shop fitting experience, they focused on the manufacture of metal parts for office furniture. From the early days, the founders were committed to pulling out all the stops to deliver customer service excellence.
Having gained knowledge and experience working alongside the founders, new Managing Director, Andy Seal took over leadership as the company continued to grow. He made the decision to move away from sheet metal and specialise in the design, fabrication and finish of aluminium extrusions, never losing sight of the core company values.
Andy continued to grow the business, largely through repeat business and the referrals of satisfied customers. They invested in new premises and provided comprehensive in-house training for the growing workforce.
Having worked their way up, the ‘next generation’ of Managers, Ian Defriez, Jason Attridge and Ben Bowden formed a management buyout in March 2017. Salesmade continues to provide bespoke aluminium extrusions, primarily for office interior fittings.
Within the first year an opportunity arose for the new management team to help in the formation of sister company; Salesmade Fabricatons Ltd, alongside Carl Brackley and Simon Vipan. With over 40 years experience between them they offer high-quality sheet metal work and fabrications from our base in Aylesbury.
The formation of Salesmade Fabrications ensured that the business has come full circle, returning to its roots in sheet metal fabrications. This continues to give Salesmade the ability to offer the full package to customers.
