greases for the upstream oil industry globally, and the refurbishment of the Congress Parkway bridge in Chicago five years ago provides an excellent reference point for our Bimagrip antiskid treatment which has a proven 20 year life”.
R S Clare remains the premier supplier of lubricating greases to major oil Companies in UK and through subsidiary Wilson & Scott Highways, they are a leading player in the production and application of Road Marking materials in UK.
Remaining Chairman for the foreseeable future Mr Meadows further said “ Paul comes from an engineering background has an excellent track record in the Oil Industry and in coming years he will be mentoring the next generation of the family. David Meadows aged 33, who joined the firm recently after developing a web based retail business from scratch in Australia over the past four years, has definitely earned his stripes on his own initiative, and he is already making his mark with colleagues”.
“With the 6th generation in place, and a young strong team of chemists, engineers and market specialists, the company is
well set to grow to the next level and to withstand the market pressures which are sure to buffet us”.
“We are cash rich and well able to fund growth organically, though if external opportunities present themselves, we are not averse to growing through acquisition”.
A Semi-Retirement party for Mr Meadows was held in the new offices before Christmas when over 100 guests from throughout the City Region were entertained to a photographic time line of the company from early days as a drysalter and chemist at Mann Island, Liverpool to the present 270 years later.
The Meadows and Wilson families, both local chemical manufacturers, acquired RS Clare in 1889 and both families are still active in the business today.
