Contract Manufacturing UK Launches: Search Every Directory at Once
Site Update · 9 November 2026

Contract Manufacturing UK launched on 9 November 2026. It brings together the companies on our specialist directories, CNC Directory among them, so you can search more than 1,000 UK companies in one place.
At its heart is Chip, a free assistant. Tell Chip what you need made or tested. It asks a few simple questions, shortlists suitable suppliers, then builds and sends your request for quotation for you, or emails you the links.
What it means if you use CNC Directory
Nothing changes here: you can still search and compare UK CNC machining companies on CNC Directory as before. If your machined parts go into an assembly that also needs electronics, PCBs or 3D-printed prototypes, Contract Manufacturing UK can find suppliers for each part of the job from one request.
For companies listed on CNC Directory
Your listing is included on Contract Manufacturing UK automatically, with nothing for you to do. Buyers who find you there are taken to your CNC Directory listing.
Try Contract Manufacturing UK. It's free for buyers.
For press enquiries about CNC Directory, contact cnc@cncdirectory.co.uk.
