## From the administrators' statement

The Company was incorporated on 27 January 1969 and operated from leasehold premises in Hellaby, near Rotherham in South Yorkshire. The Company was a specialist heavy steel fabrication company serving customers within multiple industries including construction and oil and gas.

The Company was acquired in 1984 by Robson Handling Technology, which owns 99.96% of the Company’s share capital. The remaining share capital is owned by Ms. Christine Robson. In addition, RHT owns 100% of the share capital of Robson Site Services Limited. Neither RHT nor RSS are subject to insolvency proceedings and continue to trade as normal.

Prior to our appointment, the Company employed 34 members of staff. Following our appointment 21 employees were initially made redundant. A total of 13 employees were retained to support the Joint Administrators with the completion of some of the Company's existing order book and to assist with an orderly wind down of the Company’s operations. The Joint Administrators have since made these retained employees redundant.
