History :
Bolton Brass, formally known as McKechnie Brothers, started life in St Helens in 1871, moving to Widnes, and then to Birmingham in 1894, finally settling in a purpose built factory in Aldridge, just north of Birmingham, in 1953. The company was a pioneer in the extrusion of brass and copper alloys ; it’s success enabling it to purchase its two major UK competitors.
