Named North East’s Micro Business of the Year by the Federation of Small Businesses, Sagetech Machinery is the UK’s leading manufacturer of vertical panel saws. Our complete range of British-designed and manufactured panel saws is built to suit every application — from signmakers and plastics fabricators cutting acrylic and composite sheet, to large industrial woodworking operations processing high volumes of sheet material.

WHY CHOOSE US
Made In Britain
Sagetech Machinery Ltd is the leading British manufacturer of Vertical Panel Saws. This means you can be sure that you are buying a Vertical Panel Saw made to stringent quality standards which complies with all current UK & EU Standards. Made in England are bywords for Build Quality and Reliability.
Quality Commitment
Unlike most manufacturers Sagetech Machinery Ltd. is a small family run concern where old fashioned customer service values and commitment to ongoing quality and product improvement are the watch words at all times. This is the reason that the company and its range of unique and innovative vertical panel saws have taken the industry by storm.
We Are Always Innovating
Having designed and built what is considered the only truly portable vertical panel saw and innovative large format Panel Saws, our vision is to build Sagetech Machinery into a global brand which means that the company is always designing new and innovative products to add to the range and seeking new ways to improve upon the existing range.
Why Choose a Sagetech Vertical Panel Saw?
Sagetech Machinery has been designing and manufacturing vertical panel saws in Britain for over 20 years. Our saws are built for workshops that need accurate, reliable cutting of sheet materials without the floor space demands of a sliding table saw. Every machine is CE marked, built to stringent UK quality standards, and backed by full installation, training and aftercare support.
Space-Saving Design
Vertical panel saws need around 30 square feet of floor space — up to 40% less than a sliding table saw. The sheet stays upright, so you keep your workshop floor clear for other work.
Precision Cutting
Quick-stops and fixed-rail blade travel deliver repeatable accuracy to within fractions of a millimetre — cut after cut, sheet after sheet. No blade wander, no material drift.
Safer Operation
The saw moves through a fixed sheet rather than the operator pushing material through a blade. This makes vertical panel saws safer and easier for occasional users and trained staff alike.
Vertical Panel Saws for Every Industry
Joinery workshops, signmakers and schools across the UK rely on Sagetech vertical panel saws. Our range covers everything from low-volume cutting to industrial production.
Joinery & Woodworking
Cut plywood, MDF, chipboard and melamine with clean, accurate results. Quick-stops speed up repeat cuts for kitchen units, doors, furniture and fitted joinery. The KOOLKUT KF and KK are firm favourites with production joinery workshops.
Signmaking & Plastics
Handle acrylic, aluminium composite (Dibond), corex and foamex with the right blade fitted. The ZAPKUT ZM is ideal for signmakers who need versatile cutting without a big machine taking over the workshop.
Education & Schools
Vertical panel saws are a safe, accessible choice for school and college workshops. The fixed-sheet design makes them easier for students and staff to use safely while delivering professional-quality results.
British-Designed & Manufactured
Every Sagetech vertical panel saw is designed and built at our County Durham facility. We are named North East Micro Business of the Year by the Federation of Small Businesses, and our machines carry the CE mark for compliance with UK and EU standards. "Made in England" is our byword for build quality and reliability.
Built to Last — A 25-Year Investment
A Sagetech vertical panel saw has an average lifespan of 25 years with routine servicing. That is decades of reliable cutting from a single investment, with a 0% first-year failure rate and a 100% customer satisfaction record. Our straight-line depreciation reflects the long, productive life our machines deliver — and it is why our approved used machines hold their value so well.
