Description
In the late 1950's C & J Clayton Ltd, wooden bobbin manufacturers since 1745, wished to buy equipment at auction without disclosing the ultimate destination of the equipment. Therefore the directors, John Clayton and T. Sheard Hinchliffe created John Sheard Ltd using their christian names to give their 'thinking' competitors a hint of the true purchasers.
At this time it was recognised that textile machine developments were responsible for diminishing the range and number of wooden bobbins required within the industry so John Sheard Ltd developed a co-operation with Volkmann GmbH in order to begin the formation of a textile machinery agency.
We are now distributors and stockists of spare parts for 18 European and 3 American companies whose machinery is installed within the U.K. and Eire. Our comprehensive service includes the original specification of the machinery together with our customers. This is supported by the availability of spare parts and technical after sales service which is probably the most important function of a reputable textile machinery distributor. We aim to constantly improve our service in line with the growing demands of our customers.
