Atlas is stainless and specialty metals
Atlas Specialty Metals is synonymous with stainless and specialty metals and traces its heritage to Canada where the company began the manufacture of special metals in 1918. In 1939, the company then known as Atlas Steels, was established in Australia as a supplier of special metals for the Australian war effort. More than 65 years later, Atlas is a fully Australian owned company and still leads the way in stainless and selected specialty metals with a distribution warehousing and metal processing network that encompasses 20 major cities and towns across Australia and New Zealand.

Quality Assurance
Atlas began implementation of a national quality system more than fifteen years ago, and achieved its first accreditation to ISO 9002 in 1990. Today, both our Australian and New Zealand distribution operations and all manufacturing and processing are accredited to AS/NZS ISO 9001:2000.
Customer support services
There are two key elements in the servicing of a customer base reliant on the use of specialty metals that differentiates a good supplier. One is that the company supplying the service must have the knowledge and expertise to assist customers in their product application and selection. The second is that the company should have the specialist equipment to process product into a form that satisfies the customer's needs.
Over the years it has become second nature for Atlas to keep ahead of its competitors in offering products and services that meet the needs of ever-changing customer demands.

Atlas support is global
By world standards the specialty metals market in Australia and New Zealand is small and cannot support local mill production. For this reason Atlas in over 60 years of trading has built up an extensive global network of mill suppliers of stainless and special metals. They have been chosen on the basis of reliability of supply, quality of product, technical competence, responsiveness to customer needs and value for money.
Atlas markets and customers are special
Atlas' markets and locations, stretch from Perth to Christchurch and Darwin to Launceston. Atlas' products end up in mining sites and mineral processing plants, offshore rigs and power stations, rail passenger cars and wagons, food and beverage processing plants, domestic appliances, architectural facades and balustrades and precision medical equipment. Customers range from the very small to the multinational.
The diversity of products, applications and markets whilst wide does have a common thread - they are usually unique and incorporate special metals where Atlas excels.
If it is stainless or a specialty metal in any grade, shape or finish, for whatever application, then Atlas will probably know about it and can assist your selection of product and supply to suit.
Atlas' people are special
Atlas has the most diverse range of products and services in the specialty metals industry in Australia and New Zealand and over 60 years has developed knowledge and experience in a specialist field. To be “better than best” in a niche market like specialty metals you need the right people. Atlas sales and support staff are trained to understand the uniqueness of the products and services required by customers.
