They are the leading trade association for UK manufacturers of fasteners, forgings and pressings, cold-rolled and sheet-metal products and they give manufacturers a collective voice so views can be heard at the highest level of politics and business.

A membership-driven organisation that shares expertise and provides valuable insights to members, the CBM works on behalf of companies who span every aspect of British industry.

They provide a growing community of corrosion professionals with industry relevant qualifications and development of skills.
