Our History

During this time we have consistently manufactured products having high engineering design content such as marine propulsion engines and generators, refrigeration engines, special application diesel powered units as well as generating sets for military and industrial applications.

Production moved from Manchester to Barnack Road, Stamford in 1965 and then to Foundry Road, Stamford in 1968 along with a change of name to Tempest Diesels Ltd.

In 1989 we were the first company to successfully introduce the CKD engine and alternator supply concept which to this day is acknowledged as one of the most innovative and successful business models seen in the industry.

A further change of name to Allam Marine Ltd came in 1992 when the company re-located to Hull.

In 2008 we moved to larger premises at Melton on the outskirts of Hull and in 2012 our new factory and head offices were added to cater for the volume and to create a secure platform to take the company forward in the future.

Our success has resulted in two Queens Awards and many other industry accolades.

So, different locations and different names but still a British company proudly manufacturing in England over 85 years later!
