N. Greening and Sons Ltd., Britannia Works, Warrington.

This firm, established in 1799, has always maintained its place in the forefront of technical developments in the manufacture of screening of every type. Greening's invented the first machinery for weaving wire by steam power.

Metal perforating is also one of their specialities. The management has always endeavoured to keep their plant right up-to-date for the manufacture of extra strong wire screening, perforated metal plates, and wedge wire screens, and the firm claims to be the largest makers in Great Britain of the goods mentioned. Their present works are well equipped for the manufacture of woven wire, wire, and all classes of wire goods, perforated plates and sheets in all meshes, holes, and in all metals.

The works are spacious and adjoin the L.M.S. line at Warrington, and are connected therewith by a siding. They have also works at Hayes, Middlesex, and a London office at 16, Finsbury Street, London, E.C.2. Their products are known and appreciated throughout the world and the plant in use in their works at the present time will challenge comparison in modernity with any in existence. The experience they have had, and the admirable set-out of their works, enables them to provide wire-cloths, perforated metals, sieves and screens, conveyor belts and other specialities to meet every possible demand in design, material, and sizes.
