A proud history
JES Group Ltd was founded in 1982 by Mr Viv Johnson. Mr Johnson came from an Engineering background specialising in Marine Engineering.
JES started out with a small workshop and a labour force of 8 men at a facility in Taibach.
The Company expanded over the next 5 years until the business had outgrown this site and the company moved to a 6,000 sq. ft. workshop on Phoenix Wharf in 1987. The company continued to expand and evolve while enhancing its reputation within the fields of engineering it provided products to, we have just acquired a 11,000 sq. ft. purpose built workshop with 20 tonne gantry cranes and a multitude of machinery to fulfil all of our clients manufacturing needs. The majority of JES work has been undertaken in the steel industry, other works have been undertaken on Petro Chemical, Welsh Water, Paper Mills & B.O.C plants. to name a few. In May 2017 the company had a substantial overhaul with the appointment of Mr Justin Johnson as a Director and employing a number of high end managers. JES are currently running at over 85 employees.
