Custom Metalwork from Canford

In April 1999, Canford bought Swift Precision Engineering, a partnership situated on the Isle of Portland, Dorset. It would be fair to say that this acquisition raised a few eyebrows at the time. What would a thriving business based in Washington, Tyne and Wear, possibly want with a small, failing video connector manufacturing company, 375 miles away, at the opposite end of the country?
What is an AudioPressBox?

Press boxes have become increasingly popular recently. They make it much easier for press and journalists at events. They eliminate the need for multi-mic setups - crews can turn up and plug into one of the channels of the press box (if this hasn't already been done for them) making it much easier, much safer, and far more efficient.
Canford Connect 4 and 5-Pin XLRs

When we launched our Canford Connect range in 2022, the idea was to provide customers with a high quality, Canford-approved alternative connector at a sensible price. All connectors are made to our exact specification and undergo rigorous testing and QA. Our new 4 and 5-pin XLRs are no different.
Requested by you...Designed by us - New Canford Connectors

All of our own-brand products undergo an extensive research process. This involves speaking to many of our customers about the problems they are having - often we've even come up with the solution to a problem they didn't realise they had. Our new connectors are the latest result of this process.
An Update on an Icon

The Canford studio illuminated sign is a true icon! It can be found in hundreds of broadcast, TV, radio, and recording studios around the world. We finally decided to give this classic a significant upgrade.
Production Manager by Day - World Champion Bowler by Night

It takes a real mix of people to build a successful company, and Canford is no different. We are a diverse team with a diverse range of specialities and interests; none more so than our Production Manager, and 2019's Champion of Champions, Martin Puckett.
