Glosta Engineering

Glosta Engineering

The early history of Glosta Engineering dates back to 1973 when the company was first established by Gloria and Stanley Moore. They started as a general engineering company at premises on Wellington Street, Bury. Bury was once one of the chief paper making centres in Europe, with its many paper mills.

The company then moved to Kay Brown in Ramsbottom, another town whose existence was enriched by industrialisation with many textile mills and bleaching factories.

In 1996 Glosta Engineering moved to Bealey Industrial Estate on Dumers Lane in Bury, where they are still located today. The industrial estate is named in memory of the Bealey family, who came to settle in the area back in the late 18th Century, thanks to a bleaching works they owned by the river Irwell.

Glosta Engineering has retained its familial connections, the name Glosta derives from the amalgamation of Gloria and Stanleys names. In 1991 a lavish lifestyle in the sun took favour for Gloria and Stanley as they decided to retire in Spain. As the company was set to close, Gary Moore son of Gloria & Stanley saw the opportunity to take on the business to develop a market of manufacturing skips & containers for the waste industry.

Gary’s parents agreed that he could use the trading name of GLOSTA ENGINEERING as its origins (GLOria STAnley).

With the re-developments of many parts of the city, there is always substantial demand for skips. Glosta Engineering are an engineering company first and foremost, but they have expertise in designing and manufacturing skips for various trades.

Glosta Engineering is based in the Northwest of England, the company is owned by Gary Moore. Our friendly sales team Gary and Chelsea, pride themselves on personally attending to all queries and orders to ensure that all our customers receive the best possible service. 

We work together with many industries to offer variations of specified & custom-tailored skips and containers. No job is too big or too small for us to take on, we are happy to help in any way we can. All our skip products are designed to C.H.E.M specifications. 

Additionally, we make steel structural frames for a variety of industries, including the agricultural market. We achieved CE Accreditation in 2014 to comply with legal directives for the manufacture of steel structures.
