Summary
Spline Gauges Ltd from Tamworth UK: a small, active company founded 30 years ago, employs 51 people, and operates from a real address. It’s a solo founder’s dream, managed by one director and owner. The company regularly imports and exports optical and medical tools and devices—62 months of imports and a substantial 350 months of exports. It’s a small company, meeting two of three conditions: turnover under £10.2 million, balance sheet total under £5.1 million, and fewer than 50 employees.
The company, based in Piccadilly, Warwickshire, is a world-leading manufacturer of spline gauges and master gears, a business it’s been in since 1962. Its website highlights precision engineering, accreditation (UKAS, ISO 9001, ISO 14001), and a global reach across automotive, aerospace, defence, energy, industrial, and marine sectors. It’s not clear if they offer ecommerce, but the website showcases products, calibration services, and a “meet the team” section. They also have a contact form, and a phone number.
Financially, Spline Gauges Ltd presents a mixed picture. While net assets increased by a respectable 10% to £1.6 million, cash reserves decreased by 11% to £250,000. Trade debtors saw a significant increase of 6.8%, which could be a positive sign of growing sales, or a potential issue with customer payments. Creditors also rose, suggesting increased borrowing, but the decrease in accrued liabilities is a positive sign. The company’s average number of employees increased by 7.8% to 55. With no auditor mentioned, the financial data is unaudited.
The company’s long history and global reach suggest stability, but the fluctuating financials and reliance on a single founder indicate potential vulnerabilities. The increase in employees could be a sign of growth, or a response to increased workload—it’s hard to say for sure.
Registered in England/Wales under the registration number 02984345, with a registered address at B78 2ER, United Kingdom, Tamworth, Staffordshire, Spline Gauges Limited, Piccadilly.
