Five years ago the Hydro Press Company Proprietary, Limited, was formed 1 In Melbourne, Australia 0 , to perfect and exploit a new_ process discovery by Mr Theodore M. Harrison, an Australian inventor, for the pressing of sheet metal. Early Difficulties and Success.—This invention was revolutionary, and for Hus vary reason the Company experience most of the difficulties that must bo expected when .an attempt is made to substitute new methods for old. But these difficulties have long: since been overcome. Though the Company was formed in the midst of the depression that followed Iho war, it has carried out the pioneering work so successfully that the venture was no longer ftn experiment! it is a soilidjly-esitiablishcd 1 commercial success, with a fine record “of profitable trading and the prospect of incalculable wealth ahead. In 1923 a. Company called Hydraulic Power Press Co., Limited, was formed, with • capital of £200,000 (tho whole of the issue was underwritten by the sharebrokers), and the first Board of Directors were: Right Hon. William Alexander Watt, P.C., M.H.R. Frederick Emil Thonemann, Stock and Share Broker. Colonel Charles Edward Merrett, J.P., Engineer. Matthew Clavering Coates, A.M.1.E.E., A.M.1.F.8., Consulting Engineer. Theodore Marfieet Harrison, Engineer. This Company showed a profit as a result, of its first year’s operations, which was considered in Melbourne to bo a great achievement for a now manufacturing concern, and assures the future success of the Company. Production has been confined to only a few lines, but the process can bo remuneratively applied to the manufacture of almost every article that is at present produced by die pressure. FUTURE OF THE COMPANY. With this remarkable new process, which has been proved in Australia, a good, sound,' and profitable business can -be done in New Zealand. In the first place, the Hydro' Press Process enables the Company to produce goods at considerably less than half the cost that they can be produced in New Zealand at present, and iho Company can therefore undersell rivals to such an extent that there will be no competition to fear, besides which the Company will have protection for its goods to an extent varying from 10 per cent, to 35 per cent., which gives a good margin for any manufacturing company to work on. . , ~ , ~ In the second place, the expansion in Now Zealand should alone ensure the success of any company relying on the manufacture of bread-and-butter lines for the people. That, 'iho output of the Hydro Press Company can bo fairly reckoned amongst_tha nation’s bread-and-butter lines is obvious from the fact that the Australian Company has already been manufacturing mudguards, steel panels, lamp reflectors, caps, wheels, wheelbarrows, all aluminium ware, and the same should apply to the Dominion of New Zealand. . . , The process will emboss sheet metal as easily ns ordinary typo prints paper, -this means very neat and effective signs can be turned out cheaply for advertisements, street names, house names, motor car numbers, etc. Even this field in Now Zealand wide though it is, will he enormously extended. Leather and fibre goods can ho embossed and shaped by the Hydro process, and when the possibilities in_ regard to portmanteaux, trunks, ladies’ handbags, and scores of other lines nro taken into consideration, it Js not too much to say that iho Hydro Press is one of the most important and far-reaching commercial discoveries of this igeneration. _ , Naturally, the ramifications of the business oan only ho appreciated by engineers ami those directly associated with the engineering business. A reference to the Board of Iho"Australian Company will show that three of tho five directors are engineers, and the few New Zealand engineers under whose notice the invention has been brought hare signified their intention to take shares in the New Zealand Company. e jt, j s confidently anticipated that in the course of a few years the New Zealand rights to the invention will be worth many times the price at which they are being that the capital of the Australian Company—viz., £200,000 was subscribed before the Hydro Press Process was proved to he a commercial success, whereas the Now Zealand Company will embark upon a business that is beyond the experimental stage anl is firmly established in Australia.. Prospectus'" may bo obtained on application to tho brokers. IMPORTANT.—Mr A. F. Echherg. consulting engineer, of Melbourne, who la the representative of the Hydraulic Power Press Company < Australia), will be _ pleased te explain the whole process to any person interested at our office during business hours, and will also deliver a short lecture on this wonderful invention on ‘Wednesday Evening, at 8 o’clock, in the Chamber of Commerce. , .
