£90m worth of contracts awarded to structural steel group

Structural steel business, Billington Holdings plc, has been awarded six new contracts with a combined value of around £90m.

These include the largest single contract in the Barnsley-based group’s trading history meaning it has achieved its largest order book to date, materially ahead of the previous record in quarter one 2023.

The contract wins span a variety of sectors including power generation, manufacturing and retail logistics, and will be delivered nationally over the next 24 months.

Mark Smith, chief executive officer, said: “The award of these significant contracts is great news for Billington. They are a testament to our group offering in a challenging trading environment and demonstrates that Billington is a steelwork contractor of choice.

“The group currently has a record orderbook and these contracts provide further confidence that Billington will continue to perform well in 2024 and into 2025, further underpinning current market expectations.

“I look forward to providing further updates at the time of the release of the group’s results for the year ended 31 December 2023 in April 2024.”
