Billington Holdings plc is a UK-based group of companies focused on structural steel and engineering activities throughout the UK and European markets.
Included in the group are the following companies: Billington Structures, Specialist Protective Coating (SPC), Shafton Steel Services (SSS), Hoard-it, Brand-it, Tubecon, Marshall Steel Stairs and Easi-Edge.
== History ==
Billington Holdings was founded in 1947 and celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2022.
The company was established in 1947 by Arnold Billington, a former welder at the Wombwell Foundry. The site on Barnsley Road was previously occupied by Aldham Glass Works and the brothers operated as a small works jobbing fabricator for local industries. Arnold's younger brother, Rex, joined and the company began to grow, with factory extensions built in the 1950's and 60's. The company, known as Billington Bros. ([[Wombwell]]) Ltd, relied heavily on the fabrication of steelwork for the local coal mining industry.
In the 1970's, the company (trading as Bilcon), became specialists in Cold Stores and diversified into the overseas market, winning its first full [[turnkey]] project in 1977 for an egg store in Abril, Iraq, which initiated a series of other projects in Iraq.
In 1982, AMCO Corporation Plc (AMCO) acquired Billington to help with the rapidly growing need for steel required for the underground mining industry. The business traded as Billington Steel UK Ltd (amongst other names) and won its first conventional steel structure; an extension to Chivers Hartley jam factory in [[Cambridge]].
In the mid-1980's, the company rejoined the British Constructional Steelwork Association (BCSA) and remains an active member to this day.
Between 1992 and 2007, growth allowed for various extensions to the offices and the factory at the Wombwell, Barnsley site. In the late 1990's , Modern Engineering Bristol Ltd changed its name to Billington Modern Structures before finally becoming Billington Structures Ltd.
In 2003, the Easi-Edge barrier was developed to prevent falls from height when a structure is being erected. Easi-Edge originally traded as a division of Billington Structures Ltd and grew rapidly to its own market leading position.
In April 2008, AMCO Corporation Plc changed its name to Billington Holdings Plc following the investment of Easi-Edge and Tubecon.
2011 investment saw Billington Structures become the first Steelwork Contractor to '[[CE marking|CE Mark]]' a primary steelwork frame in the UK, and was proud to erect the very first CE marked steel structure in the UK. In the same year, Billington Holdings acquired Peter Marshall Steel Stairs Ltd, creating a new division specialising in the design, fabrication and installation of highly engineered steelwork, staircases and balustrade systems.
Billington Holdings continued to grow with the development of Hoard-it in conjunction with major contractor during 2010. Hoard-it provides reusable and eco-friendly site hoarding solutions on a hire and sale basis and has developed into stand-alone business working for a wide range of blue chip main contractors across the UK.
In 2015, the Group acquired the Shafton site after it was occupied by Sherling Steel - principally engaged in steel and plate processing for the steel industry. With a combined useable area of 181,000 sq ft, Shafton remains the largest strategic investment made in the Group's history.
In 2019, the Group's turnover reached more than £100m following the success of subsidiary companies.
In January 2022, the Group announced the acquisition of the trading assets of Orrmaac Coatings Ltd, launching Specialist Protective coatings Ltd. Based in [[Sheffield]], the company offers a wide range of paint treatments including anti-corrosion and fire protective systems across a range of industry sectors.
