Did you know?

Monday, November 21st, 2011

In July 2004 the West Horndon plant was officially closed and most of the West Horndon employees were made redundant.


Gary Cook, one of the skilled and experienced machinists took this opportunity to set up and establish the new Special Metals Fabrication Ltd at premises based in Wickford.

The new Special Metals Fabrication was thus born and is now a thriving and successful fabrication company with the emphasis on growth.

Many of the original West Horndon employees have now joined Gary, each bringing along their unique skills, knowledge and experience to the business.

We trust that the above and other information on this site has given you an insight into our capabilities and hope we will be given the opportunity to quote against your present and future enquiries.

Council’s big metal bills

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

Many councils have been hit with bills worth more than £86,000 to replace valuable metal stolen from Teesside streets.

Manhole covers, bins, benches and streetlight cables have all be en taken illegally.
“The police cannot stress highly enough the extreme dangers involved in this type of offence,” a spokeswoman for Cleveland Police said.

Metal is not only being stolen when it is unattended awaiting to be fitted or used, but also when it is actually fitted and fixed in place and established as part of its intended use.

“There have also been a few isolated incidents of extreme danger stemming from metal thefts whereby copper gas piping has been stolen from boilers in houses.”
