Dowlais Group plc was an engineering and manufacturing company formed through the 2023 demerger of Melrose Industries. Its principal operations were centered on automotive components and technologies, serving vehicle manufacturers and major suppliers worldwide.
Through GKN Automotive, Dowlais developed and manufactured driveline systems and related technologies, including sideshafts, all-wheel-drive systems, eDrive solutions for electric vehicles, and other power-transfer components. The business supplied products for internal-combustion, hybrid, and battery-electric vehicles and operated engineering, manufacturing, and service facilities across multiple regions, including Europe, North America, South America, and Asia.
Dowlais also historically operated GKN Powder Metallurgy, which produced precision metal components and materials using powder-metallurgy processes for automotive, industrial, and other engineering applications. The Powder Metallurgy business was subsequently separated from Dowlais, leaving the group primarily associated with GKN Automotive. Dowlais shares trade in the United States over the counter under the symbol DWLAF.
