About us
The Company, then trading as 'Tonkin Metal Industries', was founded by Vic Tonkin in the 1950's. It was one of Cairns' biggest scrap metal recycling businesses.
Wayne Tonkin, Vic's son, began managing the Company in 1980. During this time, the business was renamed 'Tonkin Steel' and the company changed its focus to selling new steel, which was sourced locally or if required, it was imported.
In 1998, Tonkin Steel opened in Atherton.
Operations expanded with a 2nd branch opening in Townsville in March 2004.
Wayne and Vic are committed to the success of Tonkin Steel. This means keeping up with the latest steel products and technological innovations in the industry.
