News: Kiveton Park Steel Limited wins future manufacturing award

By

Rotherham-based, Kiveton Park Steel Limited, a quality manufacturer of bright engineering steel bar and wire, has been recognised for its export success at the recent EEF Future Manufacturing Awards 2013.

The awards are designed to celebrate manufacturing businesses that have shown excellence in their innovation. The Engineering Employers' Federation (EEF) is a UK trade organisation dedicated to the future of manufacturing.

Established in 1922, the family company originally produced items used within the UK mining industry and also supplied specialised products into the defence and aircraft industries. It has developed its unique range of production equipment to ensure that the manufacturing facility at Dog Kennel Hill in Kiveton Park is suited to supply chain requirements for critical parts within the global automotive markets, principally supplying Tier 1 and Tier 2 companies.

Queen's Awards winning Kiveton Park Steel was named as the North East, Yorkshire & Humberside regional winner in the Export Development Award category and will go on to compete at the national finals of the EEF Future Manufacturing Awards 2013.

The major subsidiary of Kiveton Park Holdings, which has interests in steel processing, international distribution and trading, has seen export activities increase rapidly over recent years with current levels representing over 60% of total sales, initially to European markets but now extending into many deep sea destinations including Latin and South America, India and the Far East.

The company is closely associated with the global automotive sector supplying quality products in supply chains leading to diesel injection, steering, engine and suspension parts and providing a full service package for a wide range of material specifications.

Yaser Rauf of Rotherham contract manufacturing specialist, MTL Group, was named as the regional runner up for the Outstanding Achievement by a Final Year Apprentice Award.
