Company Profile

Established in 1976 as a manufacturer of carbon brush holders, BGB began exporting in the early 1990s - now over 90% of turnover is achieved through the exportation of rotary goods and services such as slip ring assemblies, fibre optic rotary joints and other rotary transmission devices.

Specialising in the design from concept, manufacturing, and marketing of niche engineering solutions, the company prides itself on developing quality rotary assemblies.  With two sites in Grantham (UK) and a second plant in Virginia (USA), BGB has built a great reputation for its products worldwide. Predominant European markets include Scandinavia, Spain, and Germany in which BGB lays claim as the market leader of rotary solutions in the renewable energy sector, primarily within the wind industry.

The BGB team consistently push the boundaries of rotary technology, designing, manufacturing, and prototyping world-leading solutions to rotary applications, proven by our continual involvement with future sustainable technologies such as renewable power and more recently Electric Vehicles.

We have consistently implemented Continuous Improvement (CI) activities and introduced company-wide Circular Economy initiatives and education, not only within BGB but to the local community with challenges to local schools to educate and raise environmental awareness.

With re-invigorated apprenticeship schemes, taking on a variety of school and higher education leavers in different positions around the company, not only in manufacturing, but also Marketing, Purchasing and Finance, we strive to educate, train and raise the next generation of world-leading engineers.

Quality, design, relationship building, and a friendly family feel are our core competencies that run throughout the business and the backbone of the company since its origination.
