CEPCOR LIMITED is founded to import manganese steel castings into the United Kingdom, for sale tothe leading original equipment manufacturers of crushing plant, as well as some of the leading quarry groups.

Subsequent to the first receivership of a major equipment manufacturer, CEPCOR is
directed into the end-user market.

1989
Crusher Manganese Steels Ltd was founded to service the needs of quarry operators in their requirements for manganese wearing parts.

very short notice.
With this in mind the company quickly established ties with leading foundries and began to hold large stocks of manganese castings.

a great demand, not only for wear parts, but also precision machined internal parts which facilitated the move to larger premises to accommodate its increasing stocks.
