Steel fabricator BHC selects RBS to help build its future


The FINANCIAL -- South Lanarkshire-based BHC Ltd, one of the UK’s leading structural steelwork fabricators and erectors, is to expand its business capability thanks to £3m of facilities from Royal Bank of Scotland Corporate & Institutional Banking and Lombard Asset Finance.
Celebrating 20 years in business, BHC has evolved into a highly-competitive participant in the supply, manufacture and design of steel-framed buildings and structures for agricultural, commercial, residential and educational sectors. BHC has a turnover of £32m and a strong relationship with clients including well-known retailers which, among others, rely on the firm to design and build their stores, and local authorities where they have provided the steel frames for various new schools around Scotland.

With 285 staff, BHC is also the largest employer in the Lanark area and runs an established and successful apprenticeship programme, a key part of its hands-on business development strategy, having 30 apprentices currently working across its operations; over 10% of its staff.

BHC has established its reputation by offering its customers the very latest customer solutions: it has advanced beam drilling and plasma cutting lines; the world's leading 3D structural steel detailing system and it recently built a new 2,700m² paint shop on its 50-acre site.

According to the Royal Bank of Scotland, the new £3m facilities will be used by BHC to invest in the latest technologies and processes as the firm looks to escalate its business growth: the first project to receive funding is the purchase of two 80-tonne cranes that will significantly improve the installation and delivery process of BHC’s structures.
