How we diversified
Keith Cadman bought Midland Iron from CMT Midland Stockholders during the recession of the early 90's, as a loss making company, and since Keith's background was welding and fabricating, it was only natural that the company would change to encompass his strengths and expertise. Since then, the company has added very valuable members to its staff in order to accommodate customers requiring specialised services.
Work we do: Our general day to day work is quite varied. One day it's adding flanges to tubes, or roll grooving miles of tube for work in tunnels, the next we are undertaking the on-site building of loading bays. We also get involved in more specialist work, for example building huge pressure vessels, and producing complex profiles in thick stainless steel for MRI body scanners; we have the skills to do most fabricating work.
