Suppliers
The quality of steel can vary tremendously from mill to mill, or from country to country. One of the key determinants of steel quality is how long the mill has been making steel. Like cooking, making steel is not a matter of simply following a recipe. It takes experience and a lot of practice. Our suppliers have a lot of experience – some of them have been making steel since the start of the industrial revolution – and that is why you can rely on the quality that we provide.
We also have an extensive list of secondary suppliers who we use for particular grades or lead times, or when we feel we are able to get a more competitive price for you that does not compromise the quality of steel you need.
Our steel comes from some of the best mills in Europe.

Supply Chain Management
At Oakley Steel we are very aware of our pivotal position in the supply chain. We are positioned between steel mills and end users facilitating the purchase and transport of steel.
We take seriously the complexity and difficulty in buying high quality steel and continuously look for way to make life easier for both our customers and suppliers. We invest a lot of time and effort in building relationships, and these help reduce the inevitable friction in moving steel from culture to culture, language to language, sector to sector.
We also try to help our customers understand the nature of the steel supply chain with a monthly newsletter that explores some of the mysteries of buying steel and provides tips to make buyers’ and procurement managers’ jobs easier. Please contact us if you would like to be added to our mailing list.
