We want to make things easy for you. At Widnes and across the wider Joseph Ash Galvanizing group, we provide a range of additional services to help reduce your workload and ensure you receive your products quickly and smoothly.
Joseph Ash Widnes offers collection and delivery across the North West of England, using our large fleet of lorries. Since joining the Joseph Ash Group our reach has been extended to also offer collection and delivery across the rest of the UK.
Our collection and delivery service is crucial in trying to make life as easy as possible for customers.
If you need additional copies of paperwork, such as duplicate delivery notes, invoices, or Certificates of Conformity etc. we can help.
We will bundle, pack and label your steel at your request. Let us know what your requirements are, especially if you would like us to deliver your items to the end user or get them ready for export or containerisation.
Certificates of conformity can be issued upon request and all work is carried out in accordance with BS EN ISO 1461.
After hot dip galvanising takes place, items (on request) are passivated to help reduce the effects of wet storage stain. This also helps cool the materials so they can be handled safely.
Passivation is a chemical process that forms a thin transparent metal oxide coating onto the hot dip galvanised surface.
We’re proud to have developed our own environmentally friendly, non-Chrome VI passivation process which is a big step forward for the industry.
Across the Joseph Ash Group – especially at our larger plants (for example Chesterfield) – we have ample space for storage. Get in touch for more details.
If you have any questions about treating metals or our processes, our Technical Support team is always on hand to help.
