Our History

Retrac Group history main imageRetrac Group, Engineering Solutions
Retrac Group specialist engineering supplier

Founded in Swindon in 1972 by John Carter (Retrac is the family name in reverse) as a tooling and machining company, the emphasis on quality quickly led it to become a key supplier to F1 teams. This led to the formation of a sister company, Retrac Composites, in 1998.

In the 2000s, John’s three sons, led by managing director Andy Carter grew the Group to diversify into the Automotive and Aerospace sectors, establishing a portfolio of blue-chip clients.

A commitment to investing in people has created a loyal and highly-skilled staff, and in 2021 the Carter’s succession plan was realized when the company transitioned into an employee-owned business. This exciting new chapter saw the family step away from day-to-day control, and new CEO, Dan Walmsley, take the helm.

Performance.

Precision.

Pride.
