Our Corporate Responsibility

Since our formation in 2008, AML has grown from a pioneering spin-out of the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) into a market-leading precision machining business, serving prestigious blue-chip clients across aerospace, defence, energy and nuclear sectors. That journey of continuous development was recognised in 2024 with the award of the King’s Award — one of the most prestigious business honours in the United Kingdom — reflecting our dedication to quality, innovation, and the advancement of British manufacturing.

In 2025, AML secured a landmark investment from the Walsin Group, marking a significant milestone in our international growth story. This partnership strengthens our position on the global stage and provides the foundations for an ambitious expansion programme running through to 2029.
