Steel Reinforcement
We supply B500C grade rebar (BS4449) cut and bent to BS8666 from 98% recycled UK-sourced scrap. Available in 8-50mm diameters, our products meet Eco-Reinforcement and BES6001 certification standards. Our steel reinforcement solutions support infrastructure, energy, and construction projects with sustainable materials.
Prefabricated Solutions
Our engineered 3D prefabrication service converts loose rebar into cages, link-sets, and mat assemblies. CARES-approved facilities ensure quality control while reducing on-site labour. Solutions include diaphragm wall cages, pile cages, and custom assemblies for buildings, roads, and critical infrastructure projects across the UK.
Reinforcing Mesh
We provide standard, flying end, and merchant mesh fabric in accordance with BS 4483 standards. Available in multiple configurations including square mesh (A393-A142), structural mesh, and bespoke designs. Our mesh solutions enhance concrete reinforcement for slabs, foundations, and structural elements.
Carpet Reinforcement
Our patented Rollmaster carpet reinforcement system delivers welded rollmat solutions for large slab areas. Available in 8-40mm bar diameters with lengths up to 15m, this system improves placement efficiency while maintaining structural integrity through welded or wire-tied assemblies.
