UK precision aluminium sand casting specialist Grainger & Worrall has secured more than GBP 30 million (USD 38.4 million) in new orders during the first half of 2026, driven by demand from aerospace, defence and energy industries. The company is leveraging its expertise in complex aluminium sand casting to supply components for light aircraft engines, specialist vehicle transmissions and data centre applications. To offset weaker demand in its traditional automotive business, Grainger & Worrall launched a diversification strategy 18 months ago, which is now generating significant results. Following the strong order intake, the company approved a GBP 1 million investment programme and plans to recruit 30 additional employees across manufacturing, maintenance and quality departments. The company also intends to further invest in digital sand-printing, metallurgy and advanced engineering capabilities to strengthen its position in high-value aluminium casting markets.
