About Us

 

History

Express Cutting and Welding Services Ltd was established since 1980 with the aim to supply quality welding consumables with a high level of support. Over the decades our portfolio of products has expanded to cover welding consumables, welding plant, tools, abrasives, PPE and just about anything a welder would use for their job.

1992 Express Cutting & Welding Services went fully computerized with integrated stock and accounting package.

1993 we attained the BS5750 accreditation our quality systems and this evolved into the current ISO 9001 quality system which we still have and work diligently to.

1996 we established our partnership with Esab to compliment the range of quality welding consumables we offer.

1997 we employed a fully qualified service engineer to offer support welding equipment we sold and also to offer a repair and hire service to customers.

2003 we established our partnership with Lorch Schweistechnik to offer a range of premium quality welding machines which complement our quality ethos.

2008 we established our partnership with Hypertherm to offer what we believe is the best plasma cutting machine on the market.

2011 we became a Tyrolit Premium partner allowing us to offer a high quality range of abrasives at competitive prices.

2018 we went live with Profit Plus from OGL computer system which replaced the system which had faithfully met our requirements since 1992. Profit Plus offered a higher level of automation to our internal processes and it also offered unrivalled traceability for the products we stock. This additional capability works in conjunction with our ISO 9001 quality system so that we can offer our customers the security and peace of mind that we can trace every product purchased from us back to source.

2020 we started the development of our webshop which will go live during 2022 offering our customers a B2B portal so that we can sustain future business over the internet.
