How Paralloy Group is leading advanced manufacturing from the North-East
From the heart of Teesside, the Paralloy Group is shaping the future of advanced manufacturing and metallurgy- not only in the UK, but across the globe.
As one of the largest and most trusted suppliers in its field worldwide, Paralloy’ s scale, capability and innovation place it among the true powerhouses of British industry.
With a heritage built on the combined strength of Paralloy, Firth Vickers, Manoir and Hi-Tech, the group brings together more than a century of metallurgical expertise.
Yet it is firmly future-focused, offering end-to-end solutions from the invention of new materials to bespoke delivered solutions.
What sets Paralloy Group apart is its ability to manage the entire product lifecycle internally, from inventing and developing new products to solve customer problems, through to casting, machining, assembly and turnkey delivery.
This control over the quality, lead times, innovation and services provides a unique platform to supply a range of markets, including energy, petrochemical, nuclear, defence, aerospace, hydrogen and direct reduction in iron.
“ Having every part of the process in-house means we can move faster, solve complex technical challenges and deliver better value to our global clients,” says Paralloy Group sales director Clare Reynolds.
While the group exports to more than 100 countries worldwide, Paralloy remains proudly anchored in Teesside, a region known for its industrial roots and engineering excellence.
In recognition of its outstanding contribution to international trade, Paralloy was honoured with the prestigious King’ s Award for Enterprise, one of the highest accolades a British business can receive.
The award is a testament to the group’ s sustained export growth, commitment to excellence and global reputation for delivering technically complex products with reliability and precision.
It also reinforces Paralloy’ s status as a world-class employer and innovator rooted in the UK.
That commitment to long-term excellence begins with people. Paralloy has made significant investment in its apprenticeship and skilled development programmes, offering young people across the group a pathway into highly skilled engineering and manufacturing careers.
With 7.5 % of the Teesside workforce currently enrolled in an apprenticeship or higher education programmes, this reflects
Paralloy’ s ongoing commitment to investing in future talent and long-term growth.
Looking ahead, the group continues to expand its reach in sustainable technologies, with innovative new products.
With a plan to be carbon neutral by 2040, Paralloy’ s sites already purchase certified green electricity using its electric induction furnaces and recycle metals and other materials as part of its circular economy. Paralloy plans to tap into the new hydrogen network being built in Teesside from 2028. It will not only use the hydrogen but hopes to be chosen to supply the core reformer tubes used to make the blue hydrogen, giving a truly circular and local footprint.
As Paralloy continues to grow on a global scale, its commitment to innovation, quality and regional investment remains unwavering.
From forging world-class components to forging new careers, the group is building a legacy that spans continents, starting right here in Teesside.
Already recognised as one of the industry’ s most respected and trusted names, Paralloy is now focused on expanding its global footprint, strengthening its brand and driving forward the next chapter of growth in advanced manufacturing.
