Mace Industries Information

Mace industries was first formed in 1986 by brothers Tony and Richard Mace. Having yearned for an easier way to load roof tiles to the roof, plans were made to build a machine. The first machine was built in a potting shed in May 1986; this was trialled for the rest of the year lifting many tons of tiles and proved to be of great interest to all who saw it, so in September of 1986, the first ten machines were built, much modified from the original. And now with further ingenious input from father, Colin Mace, the machines were finished all but for a name. As roofers the slang term for loading a roof was "bumping out" and so the name "Bumpa" was born. Today the new generation of "Bumpa" is the most popular portable loading machine on the market, and that's just one of the machines manufactured by Mace Industries from our 24000 ² foot premises in Corby, Northants. We now manufacture portable conveyors for every aspect of material movement and tile hoist throughout the building and warehousing industries. Mace Industries is also the proud representative for GEDA in the UK. Geda manufacture high quality construction hoists and Mace Industries have been working with GEDA for a number of years now offering a large stock holding of machines, spare parts, components. Mace Industries also offer technical assistance and training on installation and maintenance on construction hoists.
