Meet the Team

BOB BURT

Joint Managing Director

bob@non-ferrous.co.uk

"I have been in the metal business all my working life, initially a Rolled strip manufacturer, then Stockholding & Distribution, a company I helped to set up & develop. In 1983 we started up NFS & now have a small but dedicated & effective team ~ we have come a long way from the original two! The company has changed over the years & so has the market. We have had to anticipate new trends & maximise the commercial opportunities which has taken us into High Performance Alloys & the Global market. I am a keen golfer, father of 2 & grandfather of 4 ~ I enjoy travel & socialising and all the good food and scenery that Ludlow / Shropshire has to offer"
