Celebrating 50 Years of Steel, Service & Support
On 13th October 1975, West Yorkshire Steel opened its doors with a commitment to supply quality steel and unbeatable service to the UK’s engineering and manufacturing industries. 50 years later, we’re proud to say that commitment still holds strong — and it’s all thanks to you.

From Cutting to Customer Service — What’s Changed?
Over five decades, we’ve grown from a regional stockholder into a nationwide supplier of special steel.
Here’s what’s changed (and what hasn’t):
Then (1975) | Now (2025) |
Garage works | Purpose built warehouse with multiple cutting bays |
Local orders | Delivery nationwide |
Phone & fax | Emails, fast quotes, digital systems |
Word of mouth | 5-star reviews and industry recognition |
Quality steel | Still the same — just more of it! |
What We’re Proud Of
- Trusted by thousands of engineers and tool makers
- Long-standing customer relationships
- Knowledgeable team with decades of experience
- Staying independent, responsive, and reliable
Did You Know?
Over the years, we’ve supplied steel to a wide range of industries, helping to create all sorts of components — from the everyday to the extraordinary:
- Offshore platforms and wind turbines
- Vintage car restorations
- Medical, automotive, rail and defence

- Specialist engineering tooling components
- Major UK infrastructure projects
No two jobs are ever the same — and that’s exactly what keeps us inspired!
