British shadow factories were the outcome of the Shadow Scheme, a plan devised in 1935 and developed by the British Government in the buildup to World War II to try to meet the urgent need for more aircraft using technology transfer from the motor industry to implement additional manufacturing capacity. The term 'shadow' was not intended to mean secrecy, but rather the protected environment they would receive by being staffed by all levels of skilled motor industry people alongside (in the shadow of) their own similar motor industry operations.

  • Las factorías en la sombra británicas (nombre original en inglés: british shadow factories) fueron el resultado del Plan en la Sombra (Shadow Scheme), una iniciativa ideada en 1935 y desarrollada por el Gobierno del Reino Unido como preparación ante un inminente conflicto bélico (que se materializaría en la Segunda Guerra Mundial). Su objetivo era tratar de satisfacer la necesidad urgente de disponer de más aeronaves, mediante la transferencia de la tecnología de la industria del automóvil al sector aeronáutico para ampliar su capacidad de producción.

  • Les usines britanniques de l'ombre furent le résultat du plan de l'ombre, conçu en 1935 et développé par le gouvernement britannique en préparation de la Seconde Guerre mondiale pour tenter de répondre au besoin urgent de plus d'avions en utilisant le transfert de technologie de l'industrie automobile pour mettre en œuvre de nouvelles capacités de production.
