Horwood Bagshaw Engineering (HB)
Horwood Bagshaw is a long-established South Australian company founded [in its initial format] in 1838. The company has evolved through various structures and locations in & around Adelaide. From 1975 all activity was consolidated in Mannum approx 80km from Adelaide. In 1998, Horwood Bagshaw was purchased by Adelaide based Sweeney Investments to become a South Australian privately-owned and based company. Recent emphasis has seen the development of its range of Tillage & Seeding equipment [for which Horwood Bagshaw holds a 15% share of the Australian market]. Participation in this segment allows Horwood Bagshaw to maintain a range of skills [particularly for module fabrication] which are complementary to its Contract Engineering activity.
