History

Lindsey Fabrication & Engineering's current premises, on Crucible Road, Corby is built on the site of the old Corby Steelworks which were closed following the decision by British Steel in 1980.

Within 15 months of the closure, 15,000 new jobs were created by 1,500 new businesses occupying 1.5 million square feet of new business units.

Company History

Lindsey Fabrication & Engineering was set up in November 1978, in a small garage in Rothwell, Northamptonshire. By 1986 the company had outgrown the premises in Rothwell and moved to a unit on Telford Way, Kettering.

1994 saw the company again require more space, and despite having acquired the adjoining unit on Telford Way, they moved to a new location on Pytchley Lodge Road, Kettering.

In 2014 the company moved to larger premises again, this time to Crucible Road, Corby - a town with strong links to steel production and engineering.
