Steel is renowned for its strength and durability.
Our UKCA marked steel frames are manufactured to withstand various environmental stresses. This means they are not only extremely long-lasting, but it can reduce maintenance costs over the lifespan of the building.
We have been experiencing more extreme weather conditions in Britain over the past few years. Our steel frames also offer excellent resistance to natural disasters like earthquakes, fires, and extreme weather conditions. UKCA marked steel ensures that these resilient properties are verified and reliable.

UKCA marked products can even help with the insurance process.
Insurers are likely to favour buildings constructed with certified materials, potentially lowering insurance premiums.

Our steel frames offer plenty of design flexibility.
The strength of this material allows for longer spans and more open spaces. It can be tailored and used in a myriad of architectural designs and meet a variety of practical applications. AC Jackson’s produce these types of buildings for a variety of industries in the UK, including:
Agricultural. Steel buildings require minimal maintenance compared to wooden structures. They are resistant to pests, mould, and mildew, reducing the need for frequent repairs and replacements in busy agricultural sites. Steel does not rot, warp, or crack, unlike wood, ensuring a longer lifespan for agricultural buildings. This durability is crucial for protecting valuable equipment and livestock.
Steel structures can also be easily expanded or modified to accommodate changing agricultural needs, such as adding more storage space or increasing the size of livestock areas. The fast construction minimises disruption to ongoing agricultural activities, ensuring continuity in farming operations.
Industrial. Steel has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, meaning it can support large loads and withstand heavy use, without being too heavy itself. This is crucial for industrial buildings that often need to support heavy machinery and equipment.
This material is exceptionally durable and resistant to many of the common issues that can affect other building materials, such as warping, rotting, and termite damage. It can also withstand harsh weather conditions, making it suitable for various industrial environments. Steel is non-combustible, providing better fire resistance than wood or other materials. This is critical in industrial settings where fire hazards might be present.
Equestrian. Steel-framed buildings can be easily customised to meet the specific needs of an equestrian facility, including large open spaces for riding arenas, high ceilings for ventilation, and customisable stall layouts. They offer numerous benefits for equestrian purposes, including superior strength and durability, enhanced safety, design flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and environmental sustainability. These advantages make steel an excellent choice for constructing stables, riding arenas, and other equestrian facilities.
Our team can prefabricate the frame off-site, reducing construction time and minimising disruptions on your site. The UKCA mark ensures that these prefabricated components meet the necessary standards before they arrive on-site.
To sum up, opting for UKCA marked steel-framed buildings provides assurance of regulatory compliance, quality, safety, and environmental responsibility. This choice supports the construction of durable, efficient, and market-competitive buildings in the UK.
