Engineering companies in the UK: the short answer.
How many engineering companies are there in the UK?
91,053 live companies are on the Companies House register under a SIC code starting 711, as of 1 November 2026. 11,446 were registered in the last twelve months. Sole traders and ordinary partnerships are not on the register, so there are more engineering businesses than this.
484 new engineering companies so far in November.
Newest first, updated every night.
And 464 more registered since 1 November.
The 50 newest in the 1 November 2026 register file.
Newest first across the towns in the source files. A town links to its full engineering list when that page exists, otherwise to the broader town page. Each company number links to its own Companies House record.
Names, numbers and incorporation dates are free to reuse under the Open Government Licence. What the register does not carry is a way to contact any of them. That is the part we sell.
October was the busiest month.
Monthly registrations of engineering companies across the UK. The busiest month was October on 1,123. The quietest was December on 696.
New engineering companies in the UK, by month
Nov 2025 – Oct 2026 · 11,446 in total
Registrations dip over Christmas and pick up in the new year in almost every trade, so compare a month with the same month a year earlier rather than with the one before it.
How far back it goes.
Architecture & engineering companies on the register by year of incorporation, and this year measured against the same run of months last year.
New engineering companies in the UK, by year
2015 to 2026 · 2026 counts January to October only
Older years undercount. The register only holds companies that still exist. Anything formed in an earlier year and since dissolved has dropped off it, so the further back the chart goes the more it undercounts. That alone makes every trade look like it is growing. Some of the rise here is real growth and some of it is simply that recent companies have had less time to close. The long view of UK company formation works through it in full, across all 39 trades.
Where they're starting up.
Every town with a page of its own for new engineering companies: 64 of them, covering 42% of the UK total for the trade. The rest are spread thinly across towns too small to count reliably.

Towns come from the post town on the registered office address, except where that office is a formation agent: those companies are counted in the town established from their directors' other companies, or not counted at all. A town needs at least 30 new engineering companies in twelve months before it gets a page, so the rows above do not add up to the national total. How towns are worked out.
