Here’s to another 40 years of trusted engineering innovation.

What We Value
We share a reverence for steel, and our 4 core values:
-
Aim Higher. Change is the only constant. Engineering Innovation and transformation is our calling and for us, a great workplace is a dream team in pursuit of ambitious goals.
-
Continuous Learning. People are our most important asset and critical to our growth. We recognise that employee engagement and satisfaction is not just tied to being challenged and rewarded but also how they are supported through work experience, training and personal growth in a rapidly changing environment.
-
We, Not I. None of us is as smart as all of us. We believe diversity ignites innovation, through the spark of different, sharp minds. Just as we invest in building strong, long-term business relationships, we also share wisdom and sweat the details as a team.
-
People & Planet. Our workplace is characterised by the same values our business is built on – trust and a strong sense of responsibility. We care for the people, community and environment where we work, live and do business in.
Sustainability
We deal in one of the world's most recyclable and sustainable materials — permanent, forever reusable – essential in the construction of transport infrastructure, buildings and countless other daily applications. Steel is infinitely recyclable, at the rate of c. 90%, making it ideal for a sustainable yet circular economy.
We believe sustainable steel is a long-term investment aimed at yielding enormous environmental benefits while ensuring long-term value. Our commitment to our planet is evident in our products, with approximately 85% of our steel supply originating from recycled steel.
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do, from the quality of our products, to our employees’ safety and welfare, and last but not least, the continued safeguarding of our environment.
