• Company Name : HJ WEIR ENGINEERING
  • About Us : HJ HJ WEIR ENGINEERINGir Engineering Co ltd was established in the late 50s by Henry John Weir primarily as a research and development business concentrating on the laundry industry. After seeing staff in his mothers laundry on a day-to-day basis struggle with the hand feeding, folding and stacking of laundered flatwork the company concentrated its activities on the automation of this process which had a major impact on industrial laundries in the sixties and seventies by introducing the concepts and design for globally recognized products such as the Tru-Feed, the 1234 feeder, Compact Series folders, Stac-N-Fold and Foldmaker products. Not wishing to expand too quickly in the manufacture of these products because of the concentration on research and development, Mr Weir licensed the patents to well known companies such as American Laundry Machinery Company, British Laundry Machinery Company and Cefra of Italy to name but a few.By 1970 faced with increasing demand for machines HJ Weir started to expand its own manufacturing capabilities in the historical town of Chepstow, United Kingdom where in 2006 a further 3,500 square feet was added to the existing 35,000 to enable increased production capacity. Mr Weir the founder of HJ Weir Engineering died in 2009 but the business is still firmly in the families control as Son of Mr Weir, Rob Weir has been the companies Managing Director for over 10 years and this has been further enforced as his Son (Mr Weirs Grandson) Ross Weir joined the business in 2004 to help develop the companies sales and marketing division. HJ Weir Engineering are the originators of flatwork handling technology. Almost any automated laundry in the world will be using Weir technology somewhere in their plant. Product development has continued unabated with new products and enhancements introduced on a regular basis to fulfill international market demands. HJ Weir products are marketed globally through a network of Agents and distributors, the company also supply machines direct to the end user mainly in the United kingdom but also on occasions globally.
