Steel sheet piling is a very versatile product used world wide in the construction industry.

Used for both permanent and temporary construction purposes of late, sheet piling has become an integral part of environmental protection issues in the containment of contaminated land with the sealant of piled clutches creating a quick and economical solution to prevent the subterranean passage of foul and toxic lechates and gases.

Steel piles are used in all types of construction such as:-

• River and Coastal Protection.
• Dock and Quayside Developments.
• Steel Retaining Walls – in cantilever, propped or anchored situations.
• Bridge and Road Construction - Widening Schemes.
• Underground Car Parks and Basement Structures.
• Pumping Stations.
• Covered Tunnels.
• Embankment Supports.
• Temporary Cofferdams within water or on land for the construction of structures within the cofferdam and then removal of the temporary works for re-use on other works.
• Silent and Vibrationless Installation/Extraction in areas of sensitivity, eg. Built up areas, cities. railways etc.

This specialised product has great flexibility and versatility that offers an economical solution to difficult ground and water conditions for all types of construction.

Over the years we have undertaken the installation of cofferdams within rivers and watercourses as well as in tidal waters with both tubular and “H” piles as well as interlocking steel sheet piles.

In addition we can install jagged wall piling. This is an arrangement of U sheet piles that forms, as the name suggests, a jagged wall and offers an economic solution where high inertia and section modulus are needed. Final choice of section has to include drivability criteria.

We work directly with major companies in the sheet piling and associated sectors to ensure the quality and reliability of our supply chain:
