We continue to be a well-funded independent Sheet Plant continually re-investing in plant, machinery and people. Based in scenic Ruyton XI Towns (located between Oswestry and Shrewsbury in Shropshire), we're ideally placed to service a wide geographical area with our own fleet of delivery vehicles. Whilst we work with customers the length and breadth of the country, we specifically focus on serving North Wales, Mid-Wales, the Midlands and North West areas.
