Steely Products is a Manchester-based manufacturer of material handling and storage equipment for warehouses, retailers and manufacturers. All our equipment is made inhouse without outsourcing to other companies. There are many benefits of using a Britain-based manufacturer for your warehouse equipment, and we have listed some below:
Post-Brexit
No one is certain what the situation will be after Britain leaves the European Union with or without a trade deal. There are fears of long delays importing and exporting goods from British ports. British-made goods that are sold in the UK are largely unaffected by Brexit. There are no shipping delays or tariffs for the end-user to be concerned about.
Less travel and quick turnaround
Equipment made overseas can take many weeks to be delivered by ship. British equipment, on the other hand, doesn’t have to travel far to reach the end-user. This saves time and transport costs.
At Steely Products, the turnaround time from ordering equipment to delivery is rapid. We control the whole of the manufacturing system so that we are not subject to any delays that can be caused by outsourcing parts of the fabrication process.
Supporting the UK economy
The UK economy has had a difficult time because of the coronavirus pandemic. Many manufacturers are struggling to stay in business and need supporting. In a period of crisis, it is encouraged to celebrate UK manufacturing, and expanding companies are great for the job market as they create new employment opportunities.
Low minimum orders
Many British manufacturers do not have large minimum orders. Here at Steely Products, you can order one picking trolley or hundreds.
Quality
In Britain, manufacturers must conform to the internationally recognised British Standards Institute requirements. The tubular steel that we use to fabricate our equipment conforms to these quality requirements, meaning our equipment is designed well and built to last under heavy use. We also employ skilled metalworkers who make sure that every joint is welded to a high standard.
See for yourself
You don’t have to travel far to see how British equipment is made. Like many British manufacturers, we invite you to our workshop to see the production of equipment for yourself. You will be reassured that we have a commitment to great design, excellent quality and durability.
Bespoke designs
We at Steely Products make a wide range of equipment that is cost-effective and built to last. We also create bespoke designs, from custom sizes to a complete design tailored to your individual needs.
