Steel & Tube has expanded its offer of fire protection and water reticulation products (fire sprinkler systems), with the acquisition of Kiwi Pipe & Fittings, known as Kiwi, from 1 August 2022.
Bringing Kiwi into the fold makes us one of the larger suppliers in this market. With a strong and well established market presence, the Kiwi brand will continue to operate under the Steel & Tube umbrella.
Simon Gillon, Steel & Tube’s Procurement Category Manager – Fire and Reticulation, says: “Fire protection is a high value specialist market in which we have identified an opportunity to expand our existing range of products and brands. Kiwi is a market leader in fire protection so the opportunity to draw on the skills and knowledge of the Kiwi team is invaluable for both Steel & Tube and our customers.
“Kiwi Pipe & Fittings vendor, Charles Fussell, and his team have a depth of experience and long term customer relationships developed over the years. We look forward to working with them as part of our team as we continue delivering value for customers and identifying opportunities for growth”.
