In the mid sixties John Robson was trading in Government surplus and scrap metals, having an interest in electrical machines and equipment. We started to purchase scrap and redundant items from the local electricity board. This led to the first substation dismantling work in 1967 which has continued ever since.

Many challenges presented themselves and innovations to make the work safer and more efficient were introduced over time. The Wild West environment of the early days eventually gave way to a more civilised era where good work was recognised, allowing the company to develop successfully.
