North Wales is the engineering powerhouse. Airbus at Broughton manufactures wings for the entire A320 family — one of the most demanding aerospace supply chains in Europe. Toyota at Deeside manufactures engines. The precision engineering supply chain supporting these two anchor customers, and the broader Deeside industrial park, requires alloy steel bar to aerospace and automotive specification: EN19 (42CrMo4), EN24T (34CrNiMo6), EN36 and 8620 for case hardened gearing, with EN 10204 3.1 material test certificates as standard.
South Wales has the Ford engine plant at Bridgend (legacy supply chain remains), aerospace structures at Cwmbran, and the growing Celtic Freeport and Milford Haven energy hub which is creating new demand for engineering steel in offshore and marine applications. Swansea has a strong university and innovation ecosystem with growing advanced manufacturing. We supply all of these sectors from our Sherwood Park stock — 20+ grades, up to 5,000 tonnes in stock, cut to your length.
