Delta Metal Company

Delta was founded by George Alexander Dick, a metallurgist, engineer and inventor of certain metal alloys that were made from iron, zinc and copper and had unusual strength and resistance.  The alloys were named Delta Metals and Delta later became a registered trade mark for a wide variety of metal compounds. 

The Delta Metal Company was incorporated in 1892 and began commercial production in 1894.

Over the period from the early 1890s to around 1945 the Delta Metal Company's business was principally involved with the manufacture of extruded brass rods from plants in London and Birmingham.  From 1945 to the late 1960s marked a period of consolidation during which time Delta acquired six of its competitors in the brass rod extrusion industry, as well as a period of expansion during which Delta acquired other metal businesses:  rolled metals and tubes; hot brass stampings, brass foundry, water fittings and then cable businesses.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s Delta’s focus was on increasing revenues from both finished products and overseas businesses.  A number of largely UK businesses were divested, and overseas divisions were formed that acquired businesses in Australia, South Africa and elsewhere.  These included the initial investment in Australian galvanizing which was made in 1971 and an initial investment in the electrolytic manganese dioxide business in South Africa in 1973.  The first Engineered Steel Products business to be acquired was Donhad in 1981.  Since that time further investments have been made in Australia, South Africa and the USA, and the Group's European businesses have been divested.  In recent years the Group has focused upon Galvanizing Services, Engineered Steel Products and Manganese Materials.
