Defence

SFC (Europe) are a long-term manufacturer for both the Royal Navy and Global Defence sectors, producing specialised fasteners and machined parts in accordance with both British and Global Defence Standards.

Our fasteners are used across a variety of applications, covering Submersible and Surface Vessels (new build or refurbishment), including the build of critical vessel equipment.

Domestic

SFC (Europe) maintain long-term relationships with both primes and OEMs within the domestic market, providing ad-hoc, consignment and stocking operations for short and long-term projects.

Through the development of these relationships, we invested in a purpose-built secure facility in 2022 to eliminate cross contamination with our existing Oil & Gas business. This continues to grow as we service new build and refurbishment programmes.

Our products are manufactured in accordance with DEF-STAN 02-862 Part 3 Issue 3 (First Level) and Part 2 Issue 3 (Non-First Level), as well as on a commercial basis.

Export

Our well established foundation in the Oil & Gas export market provided a strong platform to extend and diversify our Defence activities into European and Global markets.

SFC (Europe) is well positioned as a leading manufacturer in the Defence sector by leveraging both technical expertise and a deep understanding of market needs. Through this approach, we have become a key player in supporting Defence programmes for various countries, as well as their sub-tier manufacturers.
