The latest Made in the Midlands breakfast networking event hosted by Threeway Pressings, Tipton saw 100 representatives of the Midlands manufacturing sector visit their premises.
Threeway's attendance record comfortably surpassed the previous breakfast event record of 71 attendees. Whilst sections of the government remain out of control, Midlands manufacturers remain passionate about coming together and strengthening their ties within the sector. Breakfast events provide our members with a fantastic opportunity to meet MDs and CEOs of local manufacturing companies with a view to creating new business.
Threeway Pressings are based at their own purpose built facility that extends to three acres. They have well equipped power press shops that have high speed automatic and single action presses of up to 250 tonne, along with the latest servo driven coil feeders. The combination of a very large number of presses with varied capacities, enable Threeway Pressings to undertake a truly comprehensive range of presswork.
With such a large crowd of Midland manufacturers, Threeway Pressings Managing Director, Phil Stanley presented all of his company capabilities to his guests with a compilation video. On social media, guests tweeted out their delight with the event, as Pemberton Engineering said: Superb breakfast networking event @threewaypress this morning.

One of Made in the Midlands newest members this year, Bracebridge Engineering tweeted: Thanks to @threewaypress for a fantastic breakfast morning today with @madeinthemids #ukmfg.
Additionally, Stanley expressed his delight at welcoming over 100 representatives of the manufacturing sector to his factory, as he explained: It's been fantastic to see so many people come. We would like to thank everyone, as weve had manufacturers from everywhere in the Midlands come and join us. We are overwhelmed with the support weve had today.
The majority of Made in the Midlands members were previously aware of Threeways manufacturing capabilities, yet their breakfast event helped to uncover their other capabilities and products. Threeway have been strengthening the companys own brands of gardening products and photographic darkroom equipment, tripods and studio lighting. The Threeway Group includes: Threeway Pressings, TISA Injection Mouldings Ltd, Bullbarrow, Spyrabase and Brilliant Garden Products.
After uncovering all of these additional products at their breakfast event, Stanley explained: I think people may have been skeptical that we just do press work and injection moulding, but what they didnt know is how we finish it off. They also didnt know that we export all over the world as well. So from that side of the scale, it's been fantastic, it's been very good that people can see what we do.
Prior to hosting such a large amount of people at their premises, the entire Threeway team worked very hard in the days leading up to the event to ensure there was a safe environment for all guests, as Stanley concluded: Credit to our staff, everybody has tucked in and got the place tidy and clean, theyve all got involved and this is not just about myself, Richard Perry and who is here today. It's about everybody in the company, theyve all supported us and got behind us, so it's brilliant.
