Lees Steel Decking, the UK’s leading manufacturer of steel

list of prestigious London buildings the Derbyshire based firm has
been involved with.

The White City project in west London, set to be completed in 2008,
includes a new rail station with a link to the tube and parking for
5000 cars. Main contractor Multiplex and steel fabricators Severfield
Reeve, had no hesitation in choosing Richard Lees Steel Decking to
supply and install 180,000 sq metres of Holorib profile for the project.
For Richard Lees Steel Decking, Dr. Chris
Hampton, Director commented, “ The technical discussions and
specification requirements have been refined over the last two and
a half years. Our Holorib profile was chosen because of its versatility
and fire resistance. The need to retain flexibility in floor design
for retail developments and the need for shallow slabs made this
profile an obvious choice. Delivery and installation will continue
until 2008. It’s great to add this to our portfolio which
includes such London landmarks as More London, St. Mary Axe, Canary
Wharf and Tate Modern.”
