About us
Sheffield Forgemasters can trace it's origins back to the early 1700s and through numerous famous names in the steel industry including Vickers, Firth Brown, English Steel and British Steel. The company is now a fully integrated supplier of steel castings and forgings with melt shop, forge, foundry, machine shops as well as extensive R&D and NDT services on a single site in the UK. Markets served include nuclear, defence, offshore oil and gas, power generation, steel processing and pressure vessels to name but a few. The company has produced some of the world's largest cast products up to 350 tonnes and steel forgings of up to 200 tonnes. Hundreds of years experience along with a commitment to new technology, new practices, quality and continuous R&D allows the company to produce complex castings and forgings for almost any application. The company also supplies various grades of raw materials, such as ingot and bar, for further manufacturing. Materials supplied in the UK can be delivered 'hot', where possible, to reduce heating time in furnaces.

𝗛𝗥𝗛 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗥𝗼𝘆𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 The Princess Royal saw how Sheffield Forgemasters is investing in state-of-the-art facilities and delivering next generation skills, as she greeted 75 apprentices. Her Royal Highness was given a tour of the Brightside Lane facilities, seeing heavy forging operations, meeting employees from all levels of the 675 strong workforce and was briefed on the dramatic recapitalisation taking place across the site. The Princess Royal’s visit follows in the footsteps of Queen Victoria, King George V, Queen Elizabeth II and the then Prince of Wales (now King Charles III), who all visited the Brightside Lane site. https://lnkd.in/eDqHrU4c The Royal Family | The Royal Household

Sheffield Forgemasters is pleased to announce its annual Charity Football Tournament raised a record-breaking amount for Support Dogs! Donations for this year's event amounted to £2,124.50 for Support Dogs – Sheffield Forgemasters' highest amount of football fundraising so far. These generous donations, mostly from our employees, contractors, their friends and families, have brought our total for Support Dogs to £17,993.94 in pursuit of our £20,000 target - the cost of training one specialist dog to assist people with epilepsy, physical disability and children with autism. The tournament, hosted at the Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park Community Stadium on Monday 9 September, saw ten teams from across Sheffield Forgemasters come together in a great spirit of healthy competition. Congratulations to the Melt Shop Maintenance team, who won the tournament and a big thank you to everyone who made the event a success. #CharityEvent #SheffieldIsSuper #MadeInSheffield

Curious about how we transport some of the largest products we manufacture? 🤔 At our site on Brightside Lane site in Sheffield, moving our huge components is no small feat. For oversized loads, we coordinate with the Police to temporarily close major roads and escort these heavy items to the nearest port. 🚨 Take, for example, this 8-meter-long plate mill roll weighing over 120 tonnes, now en route to one of our valued global partners. 🔜 Reach out to our team today to discuss how we can meet your steel processing needs: https://lnkd.in/ev7faW6e 👈
