With more than 80 years of experience, Clifford Springs is a global leader in the design and manufacture of highly complex seal energizing springs.

“Being part of Beijer Components has allowed us to continue working in the way that made us a leading specialist spring-maker, but we now have the support of a global company behind us.
We’ve continued investing in the latest spring manufacturing technology and built stronger relationships across the wider group, giving us access to new expertise and different ways of solving customer challenges – and ultimately, our customers benefit from us having access to practically every conceivable type of spring.
What I value most is having access to talented people across the business who act as a trusted sounding board. I like working with people who bring strengths in areas where I’m less experienced and that collaboration helps turn ideas into action.
The leadership teams bring a hugely positive mindset, and that creates an environment where growth feels both ambitious and enjoyable.”
