What We Do
End-to-End Automation Engineering
We are not a reseller. We are an engineering company.
Every project we take on is handled by our in-house team of mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, working together from the first consultation through to long-term support. This means one accountable partner, one point of contact, and no handoffs between contractors.
Our core capabilities include:
Built on Engineering, Not Sales
MASK Control Systems was established in 2013 with a straightforward goal: to provide manufacturers with the kind of high-quality, bespoke automation engineering that had previously only been accessible to large-scale operations.
Over the past 13 years, we have grown into a trusted engineering partner for manufacturers across multiple industries and three continents. Our work spans food and FMCG, aerospace and defense, medical device manufacturing, marine, automotive, and logistics.
We are based in Mid Devon, one of the most manufacturing-dense regions in the UK, and we carry a strong understanding of the operational realities facing UK manufacturers today: skills shortages, legacy equipment, rising energy costs, and the pressure to do more with less.
That understanding shapes everything we build.

Why Manufacturers Choose Us
A Different Kind of Engineering Partner
UK manufacturers come to MASK for several reasons.
We are vendor independent. We are not tied to any single PLC manufacturer or technology platform. We recommend and build with whatever is right for your process, whether that is Siemens, Mitsubishi, Unitronics, Allen-Bradley, or another platform.
We cover the full project lifecycle. From initial feasibility through to years of post-installation support, we remain your engineering partner. There is no handoff to a third-party service team.
We work with your existing systems. Not every project starts from scratch. We have extensive experience integrating with and upgrading legacy automation equipment, minimising disruption to live production.
We understand regulated environments. Our work in aerospace and defence, medical manufacturing, and calibration-critical applications means we are familiar with the documentation, traceability, and compliance requirements that many sectors demand.
We are the right size. Large enough to deliver complex, multi-disciplinary projects. Focused enough to remain genuinely responsive and technically engaged at every stage.
