Flexo Springs Ltd are a dedicated spring manufacturer and stockist. We supply large companies, individuals and small firms in a wide range of industries who require quality spring products and good service.
Flexo Springs is a well-established family run company, founded in 1928.
We started out in premises that were originally World War One army huts. The site has been rebuilt and developed over the years and has become the factory and offices that we have now.
In the early days we were called Flexo Steels and made the “steels” for corsets, as well as producing other metalwork that was needed for the military. We introduced a spring catalogue in the 1950’s which has grown over the years and we now have 4,200 stock items.
We are committed to quality and operate strict quality systems in order to ensure that we maintain our high standards. Our materials are all ethically sourced and we are also committed to minimizing the environmental impact of our operations.
Our staff are very customer focused and we are continually looking for ways to improve the service we provide.
Flexo Springs is a member of the Institute of Spring Technology (IST) and the British Engineering Manufacturer Association (BEMA), supporting our ISO 9001:2015 registration.
