Having been established in 1955, we have a wealth of industry experience. A look at our history is shown below:
Superite Tools Ltd formed by Alan Collins in 1955. Alan worked on projects from his Father-in-laws wooden shed.
Alan’s Mother-in-law lent him £150 to buy Superite’s first Lathe.
Superite became very successful and he gained Billy’s respect and support which resulted in the running of Aldridge garage being handed down to Alan in 1970, it grew into ‘Aldridge Accident Repair Centre’. Today both Superite and AARC come under the umbrella of ‘Collins Group International’.
Superite expanded from the shed in paddock lane, to a bigger premises on paddock lane then due to compulsory purchase moved to a purpose built site in Brickyard Road in Aldridge. Amazingly it was built on the land of the former miner’s cottages where Alan’s father was born.
Both of Alan’s sons came on board with Superite and AARC from an early age
In 1991 Alan retired and let his sons take the reins.
In April 2005 when the property market boomed the boys sold the Walsall road and brickyard road sites to Belway homes for development, today Superite & AARC are in a 32,000 sq. ft. purpose built premises in Vigo Place Aldridge.
In august 2014 Mike Collins, Alan’s eldest son retired from the businesses after 39 years to help his children pursue their business ventures. Martin is now Managing Director of the group.
Martin is aware of a growing skill shortage which he attributes to the unwillingness of many companies in the industry to invest in training during the recession and that the time has come to start offering apprenticeships.
The company continue to move with the times and innovate by ‘Going Green’ as part of various energy saving processes, they have installed solar panels and are heating the factory by burning wood pellets.
Martin is feeling very positive about the future of Superite and Collins Group as a whole, having welcomed on board the 4th generation.
Martins daughter Jessica and son William join the company.
