Steel Pipes Supply for UK & EU Projects

Ferroxen supplies welded steel pipes (SSAW / ERW) to infrastructure, energy, water and industrial projects across the UK and EU. Our project-based sourcing model is designed for EPCs, contractors and asset owners who need technically compliant, schedule-critical pipe supply with clear accountability from enquiry to delivery.

We work with a vetted network of international manufacturers instead of relying on a single mill. This diversified approach helps manage technical, commercial and logistical risk while maintaining competitive pricing and capacity for complex or large-volume projects.

Our team focuses on aligning pipe specifications with project standards, ensuring documentation completeness and coordinating inspections, testing and third-party verification where required. From early budgeting to final delivery, we support your project with transparent communication, realistic lead times and structured quality control.

SSAW Steel Pipes

Spiral submerged arc welded pipes for large-diameter, high-volume infrastructure and energy applications, supplied to project-specific standards.

ERW Steel Pipes

Electric resistance welded pipes for structural, mechanical and process uses, tailored to your dimensional and material requirements.

Technical Specifications

Pipe Types

We supply a wide range of welded line pipes tailored to project requirements, including:

  • SSAW – Spiral Submerged Arc Welded
  • SAWH – Spiral Arc Welded Helical
  • ERW – Electric Resistance Welded

These pipe types are suitable for oil and gas transmission, water pipelines, structural applications, and general industrial use, offering reliable performance and consistent weld quality across medium to large diameter projects.

Outside Diameter (OD)

Outside diameter is fully project-based, typically ranging from medium to large diameters to meet transmission and structural demands. Custom OD ranges can be engineered according to client specifications and applicable standards.

Wall Thickness

Wall thickness is defined according to project technical specifications and design codes. Options cover standard and heavy-wall configurations to ensure required pressure ratings, mechanical strength, and safety factors for onshore and offshore applications.

Pipe Length

We offer both standard and custom pipe lengths to optimize transport, handling, and on-site welding. Typical mill lengths are supplied, while cut-to-length options are available to reduce waste and improve installation efficiency on complex projects.

Steel Grades

Available steel grades include:

  • API 5L: X42, X52, X60
  • ISO 3183: L245, L290, L360, L415
  • EN standards: additional grades available upon request

These grades provide a balanced combination of strength, toughness, and weldability for demanding pipeline environments.

Standards

Production and testing are carried out in accordance with major international standards, including:

  • API – American Petroleum Institute
  • ISO – International Organization for Standardization
  • EN – European Norms

Compliance with these standards ensures consistent quality, traceability, and compatibility with global project requirements.

Coating & Surface Options

Supplied according to environmental conditions and project requirements:

  • Bare (Black Pipe)

  • Bitumen Coating

  • FBE (Fusion Bonded Epoxy)

  • 3LPE / 3LPP

All coatings are supported with inspection and test documentation.

How We Supply: Our Trading Model

Ferroxen operates as a project-focused steel pipe supplier rather than a single-mill seller. This means we build each supply solution around the specific technical, schedule, and commercial needs of your project. By working with a network of qualified mills and logistics partners, we can align production, inspection, and delivery to your project milestones instead of forcing your project to fit a single mill’s constraints.

Our role is to coordinate all moving parts, manage risk, and keep stakeholders aligned so that your teams can focus on engineering and execution, not chasing material status.

  • Multiple qualified mill sourcing – We maintain relationships with several vetted mills, enabling us to match the right producer to your specification, volume, and schedule while preserving competitive pricing.
  • Alternative production planning – If priorities shift or constraints arise, we can re-route orders, split production, or adjust specifications within agreed parameters to keep your project on track.
  • Flexible delivery scenarios – From staged deliveries and multi-port options to consolidated shipments, we tailor logistics to your construction sequence and site constraints.
  • Risk-managed supply continuity – Diversified sourcing, contingency capacity, and proactive expediting help reduce exposure to outages, delays, or sudden market disruptions.
  • Single point of coordination – You work with one accountable partner who manages mills, inspections, documentation, and logistics, providing clear communication and transparent status updates.

This trading model allows us to protect project timelines and adapt quickly to changing technical or commercial conditions, giving you greater certainty from design through installation.
