Source Additive Manufacturing from the UK's Leading Suppliers
The enterprise-grade procurement platform connecting British engineering teams with a curated network of vetted, high-capacity additive manufacturers. Fair pricing. Trusted UK manufacturing. Intelligent allocation.
Built to protect British manufacturing — not to commoditise it.
UK manufacturing only
Every supplier is vetted, British and production-ready. No offshoring, no customs risk, no data leaving the UK.
Confidential by default
Standard confidentiality on every RFQ. Enhanced NDA gating available for sensitive geometry and IP.
Fair market pricing
Trimmed-median pricing strips outliers so customers pay a sustainable rate and suppliers keep their margin.
No race to the bottom
Suppliers compete on lead time, reliability and capacity — never on who can cut their price the deepest.
Vetted manufacturing partners
Tiered supplier programme rewards quality, on-time delivery and customer reviews — not just low bids.
AI-powered RFQ intake
Upload files or describe the part — our intake suggests technology, complexity and the right supplier mix.
The procurement pipeline, end to end.

Manufacturing allocated
We route the job to the best-fit UK supplier on lead time, reliability and live capacity.
Order routed
You contract directly with the supplier. Lattitive coordinates files, NDAs and tracking.
Parts delivered
Tracked UK courier dispatch with full audit trail and supplier performance review.
Fair market pricing, every time.
Lattitive uses a trimmed median across all qualifying supplier bids. We strip the highest and lowest, then settle on the median of what's left. Customers pay a single, predictable network price. Suppliers keep margins that fund quality, capacity and people.
How the model works →Capacity and lead time, decided by the network.
Instead of picking a supplier and hoping their schedule fits, Lattitive shifts that decision to the platform. We map live machine capacity across the network, factor in realistic queue depth, and surface the option that balances speed, quality and availability. You choose the delivery profile — the lattice finds the path.
Real-time visibility into supplier machine availability, queue depth and shift schedules across the UK network.
Jobs route to the best-fit partner based on technology match, capacity, tier and customer delivery preference.
Network-wide lead-time bands replace vague supplier estimates with data-driven delivery windows you can plan around.
One network. Four tiers. Commission-free outsourcing at the top.
Suppliers on Lattitive can also act as customers, using the network to route over-capacity jobs or work outside their in-house tech stack. Upgrade to unlock lower commission on customer orders and open the door to commission-free supplier-to-supplier procurement.
