The Company was formed in 1985 by the Directors of Victoria Engineering and Manufacturing (Blackheath) Co Ltd., to facilitate the one off machining items required for the conveyors manufactured by the main company.

Victoria Engineering itself was formed in the early 1950s originally to build car bodies.  Over the years it was diversified into the fabrication business.  The present Directors took the company over in the late 1970s gradually improving the standard and quality of work and moving from sub-contract fabrications to the design, manufacture and installation of various types of mechanical handling equipment. 

In the early 1990s the two companies were combined and the CHL name used due to the close proximity of another company trading as Victoria Engineering.

The Company today employs staff with 20 years plus experience in the design  and manufacture of mechanical handling equipment

All designs are carried out on CAD.  Manufacturing is performed using a wide variety of modern machines and we employ the use of not only arc welding and MIG welding but also TIG welding and with the use of plasma cutting, we can work with a variety of materials.

Our fully equipped installation team are conversant with the latest HSE and CDM regulations whilst installing and commissioning our equipment.

The Company is located within two kilometers of the West Midlands motorway network and is ideally situated to reach anywhere in the Country.
