About us & The Team
A Brief History of RAW Steel & RAW Projects
RAW Steel was established in 1986, it was previously known as Simpson Steel Construction, which started in 1976. RAW Projects was established in 2003 to take over the structural steel side. Both companies have been actively involved in structural steel and sheet metal fabrication, and over the years have built up a very strong relationship with many of the large contractors, numerous buildings standing in the country being proud testimony to that fact.
The services offered by our companies are varied.
Our day-to-day work is split into:
- The manufacture, supply and erection of structural steel buildings ranging in size from 100m² to 9000m² (with or without roof and side cladding).
- CNC Laser Cutting & Bending. Our machines can cut Mild Steel, Stainless Steel, Copper, Brass and Aluminium.
- Trailer Manufacture up to 3500kg.
- General Engineering and Fabrication
