Notes to Editors

With history dating back to 1947, Billington Holdings Plc was formed in June 2008 following the disposal of non-core assets and change of name from Amco Corporation Plc.

The Group comprises of two divisions:

Structural Steel

Billington Structures Ltd has supplied structural steelwork to the UK and overseas markets since 1947, specialising in design, supply, fabrication and erection. From its production facilities, in the North at Barnsley and the South at Bristol, it supplies customers throughout the UK with a range of structures, from portal frame and beam and column buildings, to complex structures in excess of 6,000 tonnes. Between the two sites, it is able to process in the region of 25,000 tonnes of steel per annum.

In March 2011, Billington expanded its reach with the acquisition of Peter Marshall Steel Stairs, a specialist business principally engaged in the design, fabrication and installation of highly engineered steelwork and balustrade systems. Founded in 1970, Marshall has developed its experience and expertise over forty one years to become one of the leading fabricators of steel staircases in the UK.
