About Us

Dorman's engineering heritage goes back over 130 years. Our innovation and design-led business philosophy revolves around listening closely to our customers and ensuring our product development is always focused on their requirements.

Dorman has been at the forefront of LED technology since the 1980's. LED lighting offers unrivalled safety and economic benefits when compared to filament bulbs and the company's technological leadership has resulted in several industry 'firsts', including ConeLITE, the industry-standard warning lamp for road hazards, and the Dorman Colour Light Signal, introduced in 2003 and the first LED signal fully approved by Network Rail to Railway Group Standards.

Today, Dorman sells through a comprehensive network of stockists and distributors in the UK and agents throughout the rest of the world, covering more than 30 countries across five continents. Our 3000 m2 production headquarters in Southport offers full design, 3D CAD, prototyping, testing, tooling and manufacturing facilities.

Adoption of the renowned Unipart Way of working means that quality is managed throughout every aspect of our business.
