About PP Profiles

P.P. Profiles Ltd began life in the basement of a cotton mill in Walkden, Greater Manchester, in 1976. Following two successful years of trading, P.P. Profiles (West Yorkshire) Ltd was set up in 1978, moving sites twice before settling in Batley where we still operate from our 70,000 sq foot site today.
We quickly built a reputation as a reliable supplier of profiled carbon steel to the engineering industry and in 1986 began providing cutting solutions for stainless steel using plasma technology.
Together, we combine our pioneering technology in profiling and post-cutting services to provide the best “one stop” steel service available. Our highly trained and motivated staff enable us to deliver a truly exceptional service to our customers.
With a view to the future, we will continue to embrace innovative technology, striving to stay at the forefront of the steel profiling industry with ever-increasing efficiency.
