Machinery Investment Increases Rebar Production Capacity

Here at Devoran Metals we have vastly improved production capacity with investment in new rebar bending machinery.

The Stema Pedax Twinmaster, which runs alongside our original coil rebar bender, cuts and bends twice as much rebar at a time as well as processing 16mm diameter rebar, which previously had to be cut and bent manually; a much more time consuming process.

Not only does the machine save time on rebar production, it also reduces waste and manual handling requirements.

At Devoran we can cut and bend rebar from 8mm to 40mm diameter with full CARES certification, and we also have the capability to cut and bend reinforcing mesh to your requirements.

With our experienced in-house steel fixers and welders we can also offer a prefabrication service for ground beams, pile cages and so on to save time and labour costs on site, or to fill a skills gap on sites with no experienced steel fixers.

For more information, please visit our website.

Gabion Feature Wall at the LG Arena

On a recent visit to the LG Arena in Birmingham I was impressed to see this fabulous feature wall, constructed with gabions and planted with different colours and textures. It is really very impressive and eye catching when you approach the venue and adds a real sense of calm to the area.
Just goes to show, with a little imagination and a few gabion baskets, you can do great things. This is something that could easily be repicated in a garden on a smaller scale. We have some great little gabions on our website that would do the trick!

Visit our eBay Gabion Shop!

Devoran Metals now have a Gabion store on eBay where you can buy single gabions rather than packs of 5. They are proving to be very popular with the eBay community. They can be sent by courier or pallet (depending on total size & weight) and are generally delivered to your door within 2-3 working days.


Head on over and take a look!

Devoran Metals show a 'hole' lotta love for the Phoenix Stroke Appeal

When there's a Charity Golf Day on, you may expect that Devoran would be supporting it by sending our MD Richard up to it to hit a few balls, score a few birdies and maybe sink a few pints at the 19th hole, but when the details came through to us about the Phoenix Stroke Appeal event at Killiow Golf Club in Truro we went a step further and sponsored a hole!
The Phoenix Stroke Appeal is BBC Radio Cornwall's dedicated charity. They aim to raise £500,000 to help stroke survivors in Cornwall. It looks like the event was a great success and the sun came out to shine on all the participants! We wish BBC Cornwall every success in hitting their £500,000 target.

Even Alan Titchmarsh loves Devoran Garden Gabions!

Here at Devoran Metals we received an interesting call from the production team at ITV's 'Alan Titchmarsh Show'. They had seen our gabion website and were interested in using them for an upcoming feature on recycling and upcycling household goods. The focus was on the office and our gabions were used to store files and to provide a stand for a scanner.

We had never seen them used in this way before but it certainly gave us food for thought. We've seen gabions used outdoors filled with all sorts of items from the regular stone fill to wine bottles, plant pots and shells, but the idea of using them indoors had never occured to us. So it seems the possibilities really are endless!
Wonder if we could replace our office counter with a funky gabion wall? Now that would be eyecatching!
