Severfield has secured a raft of new contracts worth £72 million, including a steel package on the 22 Bishopsgate project in London.

The group will support main contractor Multiplex by providing superstructure structural steelwork and metal decking for the 1.4 million sq ft scheme.

The five other contract wins include:

• A commercial office development in the Midlands

• Two distribution centres in the South East


• A research and development complex in Manchester

• An extension to a retail complex in London.

Ian Lawson, Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are delighted to announce these new contract wins and are excited to be working with Multiplex on such a high profile development as 22 Bishopsgate. This further demonstrates the breadth of the Group's capabilities and the quality of our order book.

"The Group has a longstanding history of working on iconic London buildings such as The Shard, London Bridge Station and Wimbledon No 1 Court. Our design, experience and engineering skills have resulted in a strong pipeline across a range of sectors

Designed by PLP Architecture."

The 62-storey 22 Bishopsgate project was acquired in 2015 by AXA Investment Managers – Real Assets. It is estimated to be completed in 2019.
