Delivery
By Road:
ArcelorMittal Kent Wire benefits from excellent road links, situated directly on the A289 duel carriageway it is approximately 5 miles away from junction 1 of the M2 to London and a further 10 miles from the M25 London Orbital.
By Rail:
ArcelorMittal Kent Wire has the ability to transport cargos directly by rail from its location in Chatham Docks. This option not only saves vast amounts of time but with lorries limited to 44 tonnes it also increases the capacity of shipments and keeps large volumes of traffic off of the roads.
By Sea
AMKW also has the option to export its product overseas through the use of its quayside. This facility has been used to export to countries such as Ireland and Norway in the past and is now being used by third parties through the company's Total Ship Services operations.

As active members of the British Association of Reinforcement, ArcelorMittal Kent Wire were very active in the production of the safe un-loading of both fabric and cut & bent products. AMKW and AMCS ensures that all their loads comply with these recommendations and fully endorses these methods.
