Adhesive Backed Materials Ltd
UK Precision Converting · Single-Source Manufacturing
Precision-converted materials, finished under one roof
We laminate, CNC cut, slit, die-cut and kiss-cut adhesive-backed foams, tapes and technical materials into ready-to-use components — all under one roof in South Wales. No sub-contracting. No re-handling. Full traceability from roll stock to finished part.
Everything under one roof
Lamination, slitting, CNC knife cutting, die cutting and kiss cutting in a single production flow — so you get a finished component, not material that needs more work elsewhere.
Engineered for your application
From a simple adhesive-backed foam pad to a multi-layer composite gasket, we combine materials and processes to hit the exact property set your part needs.
Prototype to Production
Digital, CAD-driven CNC knife Tables mean no costly steel dies for prototypes and short runs. Change the file, change the part — then scale up to high-volume die cutting.
Who we help
Built for the people who specify and source parts
For design and mechanical engineers, we turn a drawing or a problem into a manufacturable, finished component — and we'll advise if we feel there's a better material or process for the job. For procurement and buyers, we collapse multiple suppliers into one accountable source, shortening lead times and simplifying your supply chain.
Capabilities
Precision converting, all in-house
Complementary processes that work together to take raw roll stock all the way to a finished part.
CNC Knife Cutting
Italian-built knife tables with a 3 m × 2 m bed cut prototypes, short runs and large-format parts with no tooling cost. Handles material up to 100 mm thick.
Kiss Cutting
Roll-to-roll self-adhesive parts supplied on their liner, peel-and-apply ready — with optional pull tabs for fast hand assembly.
Die Cutting
Three presses — including a 1.4m beam press — deliver the speed and repeatability that established, high-volume parts demand.
Lamination & Composites
Bond adhesives, carriers and functional layers — single or double-sided, up to 30 mm thick — to create our adhesive-backed and composite materials.
Slitting
Slitter rewinder and lathe slitter convert wide rolls into precise narrow reels, with clean edges and inline adhesive lamination.
Integrated by design
Raw roll stock to finished part in one flow — no sub-contracting, no lost traceability
Industries
Trusted across demanding sectors
Industrial & General Manufacturing
Seals, gaskets, washers, spacers, anti-vibration mounts and protective packaging — finished parts that drop straight into your assembly.
Electronics, EMI & Thermal
EMI/EMC shielding, thermal gap pads, absorbers and phase-change materials converted to precise profiles for enclosures and devices.
Construction
Adhesive-backed foam tapes, draught-seal profiles, sealing and gasket materials for building and construction applications.
Why ABM
Why manufacturers choose us
Converting expertise since 1993
A trusted UK converter with deep, hands-on knowledge of adhesives, foams and technical materials
Finished, ready-to-use parts
You receive components ready to apply or assemble — we remove the secondary operations from your process.
Single-source & fully traceable
Every process runs under one roof in Tredegar, South Wales — no sub-contracting, no lost traceability, one point of accountability.
Right material, right process
We combine materials and methods to solve the problem in front of you, not just quote the job as written.
