Engineering Grants & Funding
Enabling breakthrough engineering solutions across industries through strategic funding and tax relief.
Secure Funding for Innovation in Engineering
Engineering is the foundation of progress, powering advances across sectors like automotive, aerospace, energy, infrastructure, and medical technology. Whether through automation, new materials, digital twin technology, or robotics, engineering innovation solves real-world problems and drives measurable impact.
From designing smarter production lines and advanced components to developing structural systems, fluid dynamics applications, or embedded control solutions, engineering projects are often capital-intensive and complex. At Streets Innovation, we help you secure the funding, R&D tax relief, and strategic support required to bring these innovations to life.
Maximising R&D Tax Relief for Engineering Projects
Engineering innovation typically qualifies for R&D tax relief, even if you’re in early testing stages or solving mechanical or software-related challenges.
Qualifying activities include:
- Advanced injection moulding techniques: multi-material moulding, in-mould functionalisation, recyclable polymers
- Next-gen CNC machining: ultra-precision cutting, adaptive sensing, hybrid CNC/laser systems
- Composite manufacturing: automated fibre placement, out-of-autoclave processes, scalable carbon-fibre recycling
- Additive manufacturing breakthroughs: functionally graded materials, large-scale structures, fatigue-optimised post-processing
- Smart manufacturing: digital twins, IoT sensors, AI-driven process control, predictive maintenance
- Surface engineering and coatings: nano-structured barriers, plasma surface treatments, self-healing films
- Machine joining and welding: friction stir welding, laser joining of dissimilar materials, lightweight adhesive bonds
- Thermal and fluid systems: 3D-printed heat exchangers, high-efficiency energy recovery units, CFD-optimised aerodynamics
- Precision robotics and automation: adaptive assembly systems, robotic inspection, composite automation platforms
- Sustainable and circular manufacturing: low-energy casting/forging, bio-based polymers, closed-loop recycling for advanced materials
