Ferreck Sheetworks: A sheet metal supplier that answers an RFQ with engineering, not only a price.

The commercial question

Online platforms give buyers an instant price; traditional sheet metal shops show little more than a machine list. A contract manufacturer for series of 10 to 5,000 pieces has to prove it understands drawings, tolerances and call-offs before the buyer sends files.

Who it is for

Buyers and design engineers at OEMs and machine builders; procurement decides, the engineer validates manufacturability.

  • Large laser-cutting photography in the hero and photo cards, without captions
  • Schibsted Grotesk with tabular figures for clean specification and material tables
  • RFQ intake styled as a calm procurement tool: numbered sections, 48 px fields, progress panel and summary
