A dependable rebar supplier Ireland contractors can specify with confidence must deliver certified reinforcing steel and speak the same technical language as Irish engineers, who reference both EN 10080 and the BS 4449 grade B500B familiar across Ireland and the wider British-Irish market. As a German manufacturer and exporter, we supply EN 10080 B500B reinforcing steel to Irish sites, aligned with BS 4449, backed by full mill documentation. This page sets out our range, the standards, export logistics, and how Irish buyers order.
Why Irish projects source rebar from Germany
Ireland’s construction demand is strong: data centres, pharmaceutical and tech campuses, housing delivery, and infrastructure around Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway. Each depends on reinforcing steel with certified, consistent mechanical properties and full traceability. German mills provide tight process control and a full product range, and short-sea and continental logistics into Irish ports make a German rebar supplier Ireland can rely on both technically sound and commercially attractive.
Our reinforcing steel product range
We supply the complete reinforcement package for Irish sites:
- Rebar B500B — ribbed reinforcing bar in diameters from 8 to 40 mm, to EN 10080 and aligned with the BS 4449 B500B grade used in Ireland.
- Reinforcing mesh — welded steel mesh (Baustahlmatten) for slabs, walls and industrial floors.
- Rebar cages — prefabricated cages for piles, columns and foundations.
- Stirrups and links — bent shear reinforcement to your bar schedule.
- Cut & bend — bars shaped ready to place through our cut and bend service.
Standards and norms for the Irish market
Our reinforcing steel is manufactured to EN 10080, the European standard for weldable reinforcing steel, in grade B500B. Ireland references BS 4449, which likewise specifies grade B500B, the standard weldable reinforcing steel used across the Irish and British markets. Because Ireland applies the Eurocodes (EN 1992 / Eurocode 2) through its national annex, EN 10080 B500B material aligned with BS 4449 integrates directly into Irish structural design. Each delivery includes an EN 10204 3.1 inspection certificate. For more on grade designations across standards, see our explainer on reinforcing steel according to DIN 488.
Delivery and export to Ireland
Ireland is reached by continental road haulage combined with ferry or short-sea shipping into Irish ports such as Dublin and Cork. As both Germany and Ireland are in the EU single market and customs union, there are no customs duties and documentation stays straightforward. We arrange loading, load securing and delivery paperwork so material arrives on your site placement-ready, and plan schedules around available sailings.
