Cousins and Whitehouse
Ltd are a world class supplier
offering 100% delivery performance maintaining to a standard of less than 50
PPM.
CWL specialised in making parts for Materials Handling, including pallet fittings. Now, perhaps, the largest specialist supplier of these components.
| The factory has expanded over the years and the original workshop is now a small part of the whole factory.
Acquisition has played a major role in the
Company's expansion. In 1984 Cousins & Whitehouse took over the wire forming firm of Linclocke & Tool
Co Ltd in Pope Street, Birmingham. Both companies continued to operate from their respective sites, but in 1990 it was decided to combine the strengths of both managements and move Linclocke & Tool
Co Ltd to CWL's premises in Finch Road.
CWL acquired the wire forming
division of Purdie Elcock in August 2000. This has enhanced CWL's
position in the wire forming industry. |

In November 2002 a major Tier One Automotive
supplier awarded CWL with a £500,000 contract for the supply of
pressings.
Cousins and Whitehouse Ltd supplies many industries with metal pressings and wire forms. Subcontract presswork now forms the largest portion of the sales and wire forming is growing in
its importance. Pallet furniture remains an important part of the company's strategy.
Many of the pressings and wire forms the company manufactures are supplied to major Tier One suppliers to the Automotive Industry.
Many of
CWL's components are found in Honda, Jaguar, Nissan, Peugeot and MG Rover.
CWL has a policy of continuous investment and improvement so that it can remain competitive.
Cousins and Whitehouse Ltd is approved to ISO/TS 16949.
