A core team of highly experienced tradesmen are based within the steelwork complex in Scunthorpe. Their proficiency is required to undertake refurbishment of some of the core infrastructure in addition to their involvement in the construction and installation of new equipment and plant. Our unique experience in managing Coke Oven and Blast Furnace gasses enabling them to be diverted to fuel to the on-site power station, has resulted in Grayton’s knowledge being recognised in many other industries.

“Please accept my sincere gratitude for your outstanding work in completing the major AMEG T70, T73 & T75 Bellows Replacement project during the recent British Steel summer shutdown period, safely and on time. Your entire team’s dedication, hard work, and commitment to meeting our deadline for this are truly appreciated.
This accomplishment is a testament to the whole team’s professionalism and expertise. The successful completion of this project will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the future of the AMEG gas pipeline and our ability to continue with engineering tasks such as this one on that pipeline.
With the entire Grayton team‘s support, an improved engineering solution was provided and adopted, ensuring that the project works were completed exceptionally well. The team’s ability to adapt and respond to the programme as it changed is also something to be extremely proud of, a true testament to teamwork.
Thank you again for your exceptional efforts. The entire team’s contributions were invaluable, and I look forward to our continued collaboration on all future projects of this type.”‐ Chris Cowling, Project Engineer, British Steel
“Thanks to the Grayton team for your efforts on the change of No.12 Hot Blast Valve and Bellows. Everything was perfect and the whole working party was commended for the safe working practices carried out. We'd like to give you the highest praise for how professionally the job was completed. And by the way – this was the only critical job on plant that was completed ahead of time, great job!”‐ Craig Morris, Stoves, Scunthorpe Blast Furnaces
“Thank you for the support during our major incident that occurred at SRM Saturday Morning – WBF Closed Circuit Cooling System catastrophic leak. Very quick response onsite and followed through into the evening that day to enact a full repair. I really appreciate the help and my total thanks to Paul and the onsite team!!”‐ John Coleman, Plant Engineer, Scunthorpe Rod Mill
“Much appreciated for the work carried out during the summer shutdown, including the added extras. Grayton never cease to amaze and impress – please pass my appreciation on to the guys.”‐ Dan Jacklin, Mechanical Engineer, British Steel
“As always your lads have done an excellent job replacing the highline beams. Please pass on our thanks to Ben and his teams. Excellent job by all – Thank you.”‐ Mick Johnson, British Steel
“I just wanted to send a quick note to thank you for the work on the Cold Blast Main. We went from quite a dangerous position in terms of site security due to the pad sinking pulling the trestle leg with it and mains almost coming off the support saddles. The response was very quick and within a week we had a design to work to and within 1 ½ months the design was turned into reality and fitted restoring us back to a comfortable position – added to that it was right over the Christmas period! Thanks again for the efforts on this one, I can finally get a good nights sleep!”‐ John Coleman - Lead Mechanical Engineer, British Steel

“We devised a solution for British Steel to significantly reduce and simplify the connection to their DLCO gas holder, removing all redundant isolation valves, platforms and piped services. We manufactured and installed a new 10m piped spool with seal pot and pipework. Due to the volatile nature of the residue inside the gas main, we had to cold cut and water jet clean the gas main - which allowed hot work operations to commence and the removal of contents for lifting operations.”‐ British Steel
