Business Profile
Steel Line manufactures stainless steel products that create desirable, robust and elegant furniture for streets, railway platforms and concourses, shopping centres and public areas
T
he Sheffield-based company recently designed two public realm product ranges particularly suited to railway stations and robust environments with high public footfall.
Standup and Metro railway station furniture
A train station is the gateway to a town or city and the first impression is crucial to any traveller. Getting it right first time is something Steel Line can help you with. Standup and Metro include a range of stainless steel bollards, cycle stands and litter bins with a number of seating options available in both models. All of the company’s furniture is crafted specifically to work in harmony with the urban environment. Its products are constructed using the highest grade
materials and are hand-finished to ensure the perfect balance of aesthetic beauty and durability.
Steel Line is expert at manufacturing rugged, durable yet elegant Standup and Metro station furniture which will not only stand the test of time, but also offer comfort and practicality. Satin, beadblast and blended ‘invisible’ welds are just three of the features that balance aesthetics with functionality, while the quality of its stainless steel products offer an indeterminable life span with their resistance to vandalism and graffiti. Primarily, these have been project specified by architects visiting the company's websites, but Steel Line is now making a move to build on these successes by marketing directly to Toc's, infrastructure contractors and of course
Network Rail, on the basis that it has funded these initial project successes. Standup and Metro are whole life investment products, with estimated 40 year lifespans, thereby contributing to the 40 per cent level of annual operational maintenance costs savings currently sought by the rail industry. Why invest in public realm products with a lower specification and design appeal when they may have to be refurbished or replaced within one- three years depending on the local environment? Stainless steel will maintain its pristine appearance provided it is cleaned regularly. Unlike mild steel stainless thrives on oxygen. Dust dirt and user spillages will cause staining which can easily be removed using detergent or CIF.
