MCT Engineering: A Leader in Composite Innovation and Manufacturing

 

Founded in 1997, MCT Engineering has grown into a premier name in composite manufacturing from its base in Daventry, UK. In 2021, the company marked a significant milestone by expanding into a new, purpose-built facility, further strengthening its UK infrastructure and increasing production capacity.

Operating primarily within the motorsport, automotive, and defence sectors, MCT has developed a reputation for technical excellence, delivering not only exceptional component quality but also pioneering innovative, cost-effective production methodologies. As a Tier 1 supplier to many UK-based automotive manufacturers, MCT plays a key role in supporting some of the industry’s most high-profile and prestigious programs.

The company’s reputation within motorsport is equally impressive, with MCT’s components and services featured across the world’s top racing series and elite teams. This close connection ensures MCT remains at the forefront of cutting-edge composite techniques and materials, enabling them to meet the most demanding industry standards.

MCT’s success is underpinned by its team of around 70 highly skilled and dedicated employees. The company also demonstrates a strong commitment to the future of composite manufacturing through its in-house training college, which develops and nurtures the next generation of composite specialists.

A pivotal moment in MCT’s evolution came in 2018, when the company joined forces with Rockman Advanced Composites. This partnership significantly increased MCT’s production capacity and expanded its service offerings, including structural FEA analysis and 5-axis machining capabilities. The collaboration has also enabled MCT customers to leverage Low-Cost Country (LCC) opportunities, delivering added value and cost savings across various programs.

With its unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and customer success, MCT Engineering continues to set the standard in composite manufacturing, supporting industries and programs at the pinnacle of performance and precision.
