Severfield-Rowen's recently appointed finance director has made his first investment in the structural steel firm. Alan Dunsmore joined Severfield-Rowen from Smiths Group in March. He has invested £22,400 in 10,000 shares. Severfield-Rowen says that its order book was worth £241m at the end of April. New orders include structural steelwork for Heathrow's Terminal 2. The company is growing its market share in the UK but export business is hard to come by. Trading is in line with expectations but management expects 2010 to be a tough year.Steel product prices are rising as raw material costs increase.
