A family business established in 1950
Horrods back catalogue!
The Statesman, a 25 cwt Mastic Asphalt mixer
mounted on the now unused turntable chassis.
A very popular item in its day, the steering
meant less wear and tear on the wheels, but
for some towing this was particularly
challenging. Especially in reverse!
60 Gallon Immersed tube Bitumen Boiler.
A formidable beast in its day.
Installed into the CITB college
Hackney for their training program
this machine was fired by natural
gas.
The fore-runner of the
SwiftMelt.
This
Whirlpool
mastic mixer was a
groundbreaking design which subsequently
became the basis for the design of the
SwiftMelt but modified using better technology!
The old design shape of a static mastic
asphalt mixer.
The Horrods bitumen boiler has
a spun pan (no leaks from faulty
welding). Although still available
health and safety demands tend to
prevent their use on most sites.
Another unit designed to make life easier on site.
A 15 Gallon Bitumen Boiler mounted on a
Turntable table trolley with a towing eye for
site only. A bucket step to the rear, providing a
safer decanting height. Sheilded bottle
carriers to the front.
The Permatrack bridge-jointing
mixer, one of a kind!
