MPLS Network Solutions in the UK for Manufacturing & Logistics
Enterprise-grade MPLS connectivity engineered for manufacturing operations across the UK.
Guaranteed QoS
Priority traffic classes ensure voice, video, and critical applications always perform at their best across every site.
Private & Secure
Your data travels over a private network — never touching the public internet — with built-in encryption and access controls.
Fully Managed
From circuit provisioning to ongoing monitoring, our team handles every aspect of your MPLS infrastructure.
Manufacturing with multiple factories, plants, and head offices face a critical challenge: keeping SAP ERP, Epicor, and MES platforms performing consistently across every location. Standard internet connections introduce variable latency, packet loss, and unpredictable speeds that degrade production schedules, quality reports, and supply chain data transfers and frustrate production managers and engineers.
Cloudswitched deploys managed MPLS networks specifically designed for UK manufacturing. Our Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network connects multiple sites with guaranteed bandwidth, low latency, and quality-of-service traffic prioritisation, ensuring your production managers and engineers experience identical performance whether they are in your head office or the most remote factorie.
How it works for Manufacturing businesses
A clear, structured process from consultation to ongoing support.
1
Tailored Network Design
We analyse your traffic flows, application requirements, and site locations to architect an MPLS topology that delivers optimal performance without over-provisioning.
2
Carrier-Agnostic Procurement
We source circuits from multiple tier-1 carriers, ensuring competitive pricing and avoiding single-vendor lock-in across your entire network.
3
Proactive Network Operations
Our 24/7 NOC monitors every node and circuit, resolving performance issues before they affect your business operations.
MPLS Network Solutions in the UK for Manufacturing
Guaranteed Inter-Site Performance
Every connection between your factories, plants, and head offices runs on a private, SLA-backed MPLS backbone with guaranteed bandwidth, eliminating the latency spikes that disrupt SAP ERP, Epicor, and MES platforms.
Traffic Prioritisation
Quality-of-service policies ensure mission-critical manufacturing applications receive priority bandwidth, even when production managers and engineers are running large production schedules, quality reports, and supply chain data transfers simultaneously.
Scalable Multi-Site Architecture
Add new factories, plants, and head offices to your MPLS network without redesigning the topology. Each site connects seamlessly with consistent security policies and performance guarantees.
Regulatory Compliance Support
Private MPLS transport keeps production schedules, quality reports, and supply chain data off the public internet entirely, supporting your ISO 9001 and HSE reporting requirements obligations with network-level isolation and encryption.

Frequently Asked Questions
MPLS is a private wide-area network technology that routes traffic across dedicated pathways rather than the public internet. For manufacturing, this means your SAP ERP, Epicor, and MES platforms operate with guaranteed bandwidth, minimal latency, and consistent performance across all factories, plants, and head offices.
MPLS pricing for manufacturing depends on the number of factories, plants, and head offices, bandwidth requirements, and SLA tier. Cloudswitched provides fully scoped quotations after a free site survey, with circuits typically starting from £250 per site per month.
Yes. Our MPLS network covers the entire UK, connecting your factories, plants, and head offices regardless of location. We design the topology around your specific manufacturing operations, ensuring consistent performance between all locations.
MPLS offers guaranteed performance with fixed SLAs, making it ideal for latency-sensitive manufacturing applications like SAP ERP, Epicor, and MES platforms. SD-WAN provides more flexibility and can be more cost-effective for less critical traffic. Many manufacturing use both in combination.
Typical MPLS installation for manufacturing takes 30 to 90 working days depending on site locations and circuit availability. Cloudswitched manages the entire process, including Openreach liaison, router deployment, and configuration of QoS policies for your manufacturing applications.
