What we do

We specialize in the toll processing or coil coating of customer-owned metal for the building, construction and consumer markets.

We’ve invested in continuous manufacturing upgrades to our facilities, allowing BlueScope Coated Products to use state-of-the-art techniques to clean, pre-treat, and roll-apply organic coatings in a continuous process on a full range of commercial steel and aluminium substrates.

We offer a complete line of coating finishes. Our services are available for interior or exterior and for warranted or non-warranted applications:

  • Polyesters
  • Silicone Modified Polyesters (SMP)

Additional services include in-house slitting and embossing services. These are performed separately from the coil coating processes on dedicated production lines.

How we work

Strengthening the future

BlueScope - Our Purpose and Our Bond

Our Purpose

We’re a global organization with thousands of employees who share a passion and expertise in one of the world’s most useful materials – steel. We see an opportunity for BlueScope to contribute to the world and make a difference.

We have a responsibility to one another, our families, customers, shareholders and communities to build a sustainable business that protects all our futures.

This is Our Purpose, and it sets the course for BlueScope, giving us the courage and confidence to deliver what matters to our communities. It also helps us attract and retain the very best people to enable us to get there.

We want to see our people thrive on the opportunity Our Purpose presents. This means working together to inspire our customers, meeting our sustainability commitments and delivering value to our shareholders.

Our Bond

Our Bond outlines the guiding principles that strengthen our business.

It identifies our key stakeholders, guides how we work together and conduct ourselves, and continues to be our benchmark for success and choosing to do what is right.

Just like Our Purpose, hundreds of employees contributed to the creation of Our Bond in 2003, and it’s just as important to us today as it was then.

Together, Our Purpose, Our Bond and Our Strategy define how we manufacture and sell steel products and solutions. They also help us to build our resilience and capacity to drive a sustainable future.
