Proudly British. Expertly Engineered. The Story of Adan Ltd.

At Adan Ltd, we’ve spent over five decades perfecting the art of hydraulic engineering. From our base in Boston, Lincolnshire, we design and manufacture high-torque, low speed hydraulic motors, gearboxes, fail-safe brakes, and bespoke hydraulic assemblies for a wide range of agricultural and civil engineering.

We take great pride not only in the quality of what we build, but in how and where we build it: right here in the United Kingdom.

 

Who We Are 

Founded in 1968 by the Percival family, Adan Ltd has grown into one of the UK’s most trusted names in hydraulic motion control. Our expertise lies in Geroter and Geroller-type hydraulic motors – and we are proud to be one of the only British manufacturers of these specialist, high-torque, slow speed units.

Are facility in Boston is home to our design, engineering and production teams all working under one roof to maintain tight control over quality, delivery times and innovation. Every product we make carries the Adan name assuring quality.

 

What We Do

Here at Adan Ltd, we manufacture and supply a wide range of hydraulic components and assemblies, including;

• Spool Valve Hydraulic Motors
• Plate Valve Hydraulic Motors
• Hydraulic Brakes
• Reduction Units
• Valves

Our components are built to perform in demanding environments, where reliability and durability are critical. Whether driving a marine winch, powering agricultural machinery, or supporting heavy duty construction equipment, our products are designed to keep working long after others stop.

 

Proud to Be a British Manufacturer

Manufacturing in Britain is at the heart of who we are. It’s about more than location – it’s about heritage, quality and responsibility.

Being a British manufacturer means we control every stage of the process, from design through to final testing, under one roof. It means we also support local suppliers and contribute to the strengths of the UK’s engineering and manufacturing sectors. Most importantly, it means our customers can rely on consistent quality, technical expertise, and service rooted in integrity and accountability.

Our products are engineered, assembled and tested onsite to ISO9001:2015 standards – because we believe the phrase ‘’Made in Britain’’ should still mean something.

 

Looking Ahead

As we continue to grow, our mission remains the same: to provide robust, reliable hydraulic solutions that meet the highest standards of performance and dependability.

We’re proud of our heritage, but even more excited about our future – one where British engineering continues to thrive, adapt and lead the way in global innovation.
