The origins of Kingsbury

We’re proud to take you back to the very start of our journey here at Kingsbury, and we’re even more proud that you’re all a part of it today.

George Kingsbury had just 120 days to sell 30 INDEX Cam Auto machines back in the mid 1940s. Here is where our story begins.

Engineering Excellence.

‘Engineering Excellence’ reflects who we are, what we stand for and the ambition we have as a company. It demonstrates the energy, the commitment and the constant drive to improve our offering, our services, our processes and our practices. It’s the passion behind what we do.

From our spacious and well equipped facilities in Gosport, Hampshire, we offer a nationwide service, providing manufacturers with innovative machining solutions and comprehensive support, now with an expanded portfolio that also includes grinding machines.

We have been privileged to work with many of the country’s most prestigious OEMs in all facets of industry, including the big household names. We also have a loyal and expanding customer base of sub-contractors and machine shops that rely on our knowledge and experience to give them the competitive edge they need.
