Confederation of British Metalforming (CBM) is the leading trade association for UK manufacturers of fasteners, forgings and pressings and fabrications, offering both business support and representation at the highest level for the metalforming industry. CBM members provide high quality components to key industry sectors; indeed virtually every manufacturing sector buys components from a CBM member company, most of which hold a range of third party quality accreditations. In addition to CBM's manufacturing companies, its associate members include suppliers of materials, equipment, consumables and services, universities (both in the UK and overseas) and research bodies - a true reflection of CBM's support of a totally integrated metalforming community.
