Company

GSM Valtech is part of the GSM Group of companies. Founded in 1974 in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, manufacturing nameplates and labels. Rapid expansion followed through organic growth and acquisition. In 1979, Valtech Industries was purchased and moved to the Thirsk site bringing machining and fabricating capability. Valtech's principle products at that time were for laboratories, including machined pressure receptacles and magnetic stirring units. Sheetmetal capability was later added with the introduction of CNC punching and folding equipment.

With demand increasing year on year, additional premises were sought. In 1997, GSM purchased the metalwork fabrication plant of Farnell Electronics in Wetherby, West Yorkshire. Increasing manufacturing floor area to 28,000 sq ft and gaining staff with over 40 years experience in manufacturing electronic enclosures. Substantial investment followed allowing GSM Valtech to continue to offer a first class manufacturing facility, including bar code data capture to give you up to date production information and accurate costing.
