About Us

LOCAL

Ag-Steel is Industrial Tube Manufacturing’s range of steel products for New Zealand’s horticultural industry. All our Ag-Steel products are designed and produced in our locally owned and operated tube mill in Hamilton.
The steel in Ag-Steel’s product range started life 2.5 million years ago from volcanic rock deposited on the West Coast of New Zealand.

COST-EFFECTIVE

Ag-Steel’s Ag-Tripost and Ag-Pole products are low cost solutions for conventional or organic orchards, providing a high quality, cost-effective system to replace treated timber posts prone to leaching CCA. These steel alternatives eliminate CCA hot spots and help to future proof land values.

SUPERIOR

Ag-Steel products are manufactured to a consistent specification and meet all Industrial Tube’s strict manufacturing quality controls. Steel surfaces are clean and smooth, minimising insect and fungal accumulation seen in other materials.

SUSTAINABLE

Steel used in all Ag-Steel products is 100% recyclable and can be repurposed multiple times. The material’s life cycle makes it one of the most sustainable resources and ensures Ag-Steel products aren’t just great for growers, they’re good for the environment too.
