ASD Limited is delighted to announce the acquisition of the assets of Atlantic Steel Processing Ltd, based in Birkenhead, Merseyside.

This strategic move marks a new growth chapter for ASD under the umbrella of Hierros Añon SA, one of the largest mill-independent steel distributors in Europe. With a site at the Port of Liverpool, ASD will enhance its presence in the Northwest of the UK and enable cost-effective distribution to Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland markets.

Additionally, ASD will introduce a new product line to their portfolio – De-coiled hot rolled sheets and reversing mill plate. With expanded capability to stock and de-coil 2500mm wide coils in gauges from 5mm to 20mm, ASD becomes the only distributor in Northern Europe with such an extensive capability.

Peter Whiting, CEO of ASD Limited, commented, "The acquisition of the assets of Atlantic Steel Processing Ltd marks a significant milestone for ASD. The strategic location within the Port of Liverpool, combined with our enhanced product range and unique processing capabilities, presents exciting new opportunities. This expansion strengthens our ability to deliver superior service and meet the evolving needs of our customers more effectively”.
