Our modular racking range is designed for maximum flexibility and safety. Each system is crash tested to 20g at Millbrook Proving Ground, ensuring it stands up to demanding road environments. Suitable for small vans through to display vehicles, our racking is available in standard layouts or can be customised to your precise sector and workflow. We supply in blue and grey as standard, with powder coat finish options to match your fleet’s branding. A wide range of extras and optional features are available across all builds – allowing you to create a fully bespoke vehicle that’s fit for purpose and ready for work. In 2011, the formation of Mackworth Vehicle Conversions as we know it today brought together the best of two longstanding operations: Mackworth Bodyworks and Mix Vehicle Conversions. Since then, we’ve focused on building quality into every project – from standard conversions to complex bespoke builds.

Trusted by Businesses Across the UK
We’re proud to work with a wide range of customers – from national fleet operators to local businesses – who rely on us for quality vehicle conversions that meet the demands of everyday use. Here’s what some of our customers have to say about working with Mackworth:
Following the award of the tender, Steve ran through all the racking specifications to accommodate any changes needed and then invited us up to Mackworth to see the finished products for sign off. It was great to see these prior to delivery and be able to make last minute adjustments to meet our trades needs. The end product has met all our requirements on keeping payloads high while providing suitable, good quality storage. Our trades have also been really positive about the new racking systems following delivery and how well it suits them on site. Any aftercare issues have been promptly dealt with and resolved and we have been kept updated throughout the process.
The relationship is easy. The guys at Mackworth know our trucks inside and out. Whether it’s Peter in the office or their team in the workshop, we know that if we have a problem, we can call and ask, ‘is there any chance you can have a look at this for us?’ and drop the vehicle off the next day without any hassle. Their flexibility and proximity—just 20 minutes away—make a huge difference.
South Staffs PLC operate a varied fleet, from VW Caddys to CR50 Crafters and dropsides, and Mackworth Vehicle Conversion Specialists have consistently delivered high-quality fitouts across all vehicle types. The team are always easy to work with, offering excellent communication, guidance, and support throughout each project. Over many years, their workmanship has remained consistently high, and the durability of the materials and quality of the installations are second to none. These conversions make a real difference to our day-to-day operations by helping our teams work safely and efficiently. While Mackworth may not be the cheapest supplier, the value lies in their expertise, attention to detail, and reliable aftercare. What stands out most is the strong working relationship we’ve built—whenever issues arise, they are resolved quickly and with minimal disruption, which is a huge benefit to our business.
We are pleased to recommend Mackworth Conversions as one of our trusted providers, for compliant, fit for purpose, commercial vehicle body conversions.
