At Stainton Metal we are continually looking at ways of improving and developing products to anticipate customer’s requirements and as a result of this proactive approach we now manufacture a range of stainless steel lighting columns. Some 20 years ago we were involved in a development project with British Telecom to develop a pole which would be corrosion resistant, light and easy to handle, vandal resistant and require a minimum of maintenance. After many months of research and development we came to the conclusion that stainless steel was the only material that could comply with this stringent design brief.
Once we had started to supply stainless steel poles to British Telecom we used this knowledge to develop and manufacture a range of street lighting columns. Examples of these street lighting columns are still in service and after close on 20 years service still show no signs of deterioration. We now offer a 70 year design life guarantee on this product backed up by a 70 year corrosion guarantee from our stainless steel supplier Avesta Polarit of Sheffield, full details of this written guarantee can be supplied on request (Click logo below).

Column Range
Our extensive range of stainless steel lighting columns covers: -
Severn – Octagonal tapering from 3m to 15m in mounting height,
Mersey – Multi sided tapering Column from 8m to 15m, and
Conway – Conical tapering Column from 5m to 12m heights.
All of these columns are available in planted root or flangeplated versions and with a number of bracket arm options.
Stainless Steel columns are also available in hinged versions
(see our hinged column web page).
Design
All of our Stainless Steel Lighting Columns are manufactured and designed in accordance with the British Standard BS 5649 and where appropriate comply with the Highways Agency Specification BD26/99.
These Lighting Columns will all fully comply with the new European Standard EN40, which will shortly replace BS5649.
