Tata Steel is accelerating its transition to greener steel with the appointment of three South Wales contractors for a £1.25 billion investment at Port Talbot. The initiative promises to generate over 300 skilled jobs.

Key local firms, including Darlow Lloyd and Sons, Wernick Buildings, and Andrew Scott Ltd., will spearhead various parts of the project. They will oversee critical phases like excavation, recycling, and infrastructure works.

Significant developments will include a new scrap yard to handle UK-sourced used steel for the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF). The effort aims to secure local employment and promote regional industrial growth.
