Carbon ThreeSixty Celebrates 7 Years of Innovation, Growth and Success and a Factory Move.

Carbon ThreeSixty proudly celebrates 7 years of innovation, job creation and rapid growth!

July 2024 saw Carbon ThreeSixty reach the milestone of 7 years since incorporation. From its formation in 2017 by industry experts Ed Allnutt and Will Batrick, CTS has rapidly grown into a globally recognised expert in the design and manufacture of complex, advanced composite structures. More than that, CTS has also become an employer of choice in the Chippenham and surrounding areas, creating valuable STEM jobs and career opportunities. 

CTS celebrated its 5th birthday by announcing an expansion into a second 6,000 sqft facility, which at the time this was an ambitious undertaking. It saw the company double its physical footprint to c12,000 sqft. Two years later and coinciding with its 7th birthday, CTS is set to announce a further expansion into a newly renovated bespoke prepared 44,000 sqft factory in Chippenham, UK. The move further cements CTS’s continued growth and commitment to the local area. The new facility is being commissioned to enable the delivery of several key customer projects in Automotive, Aerospace and Defence.

As Carbon Three Sixty turns seven years old, here are seven facts about the company:

 

  • CTS operates a 9 day fortnight to promote a better work life balance for its employees
  • The CTS leadership team has accumulated over 300 years of composite expertise
  • CTS is a Tier 1 and Tier 2 supplier to both the Automotive and Aerospace industries
  • CTS is the largest producer of Carbon Fibre wheels in the UK
  • The company is 100% privately and UK owned and operated
  • CTS has routinely doubled in turnover and headcount for three years running
  • CTS works with blue chip multinationals all over the globe

 

By leveraging decades of combined experience the CTS team have helped a wide range of customers to overcome business critical challenges. CTS is now a tier 1 supplier to the global Automotive, Aerospace and Defence sectors. Our wheels can be found on vehicles from OE Hypercars to off highway land defence vehicles. Our manufacturing processes are utilised in the production of electric motors, torque converters, pressure vessels, panels and a wide range of other products.

“Seven years ago, we set out to build something special. A company built around the brightest minds, innovative processes and a desire to understand everything that we do at a “first principles” level. Our aim has always been to disrupt the industry with bold ideas, elegant solutions and a no nonsense attitude.” says Ed Allnutt, CEO of Carbon ThreeSixty. “Today, we are proud of the impact we’ve made. Not just in the amazing products and services the team routinely delivers, but also the skilled jobs, careers and opportunities we’re creating within the U.K.”

Tom Ellaway says “ With the Automotive industry going through its biggest shake up in years, Carbon ThreeSixty is now placed at the forefront to provide the latest technology and solutions to its customers.
