History
In 1962 Fletcher Steel and Engineering Co Ltd were appointed ARMCO sales agent for New Zealand.

In 1973 Fletcher Steel under a technology agreement with ARMCO, opens new production plant as manufacturing base for Multi-Plate and Nestable products. The local operation became known as ARMCO.

In 1974 decentralisation to autonomous division status is undertaken to provide a manageable investment centre which would meet the needs of a developing market for corrugated steel culverts and associated products.

in 1975 a new galvanising plant at Onehunga, costing some half a million dollars, is commissioned. Fletcher Galvanising provides a commercial galvanising service to industry as well as galvanising Flexrail and Multi-Plate.

In 1977 Corrugated Steel Products (CSP) is adopted as Division name. Fletcher Galvanising management becomes the responsibility of CSP and the two investments centres are merged as one division.

In 1979 the relocation of original press shop and office from Penrose to new facilities adjacent to the galvanising plant gives CSP a modern base.

In 1991 the division became a subsidary renamed Pacific CSP Ltd
