Expert Metal Pressings in the West Midlands
At Venture Steel Group, we provide precision presswork services for clients across construction, solar, and industrial sectors. Based in the West Midlands, our family-run company manufactures high-quality metal pressings that meet the most demanding specifications.
With continual investment in CNC turret punches, press brakes, and power presses, we produce pressed components with unrivalled accuracy and repeatability. From one-off parts to commercial presswork runs of millions, our scale and expertise make us a trusted UK supplier.
We can press steel sheets up to 6mm and produce over five million pressed parts per month across our two UK sites. Supported by 25–175 tonne power presses, we manufacture using in-house tooling or client-supplied tooling, giving flexibility for all projects.
What Is Presswork?
Presswork (sometimes called pressworking) is a process that shapes sheet metal by using a press machine. A press forces the sheet against a tool, creating a defined profile.
When a different shape is required, tooling can be swapped or modified. This makes pressworks versatile, repeatable, and cost-effective for both small batches and mass production.
