Every photograph on this site is licensed stock, and each one is credited below. None of them shows a Shopfloor Agency facility or a client’s plant, equipment, or people. The background footage at the top of each page and in the footer was made for this site with AI video tools and shows no real plant.

When a client project includes photography of the client’s own plant, those photographs replace the stock images on the pages where they belong, and this list gets shorter.

Photography is one of the first things a buyer looks at, and stock is easy to spot. We looked at how other manufacturers handle it in a study ofsixty-six manufacturer websites. On a website build, we plan photography of your plant alongside your capability pages, and until those photographs exist, the written facts carry the page. Our case studies show the real client sites, and the contact page explains how a project starts.
