Harry F Rochat Ltd was first formed in 1969 by Harry Rochat and
his son Leon Rochat. They both had worked in a company in Kings
Cross that had been making presses of many kinds since 1900. After
the closure of this organisation, Harry and his son Leon decided
to commence manufacturing high quality printing presses. They set
about designing a range of presses in a manner in which they believed
they should be made.
Their traditional engineering background gave them the belief
that none of the machines should be fabricated and very firm views
on materials, techniques, and design.
This is something which has been borne out in the presses design
since 1969. As a result, side frames, gears, handwheels and iron
rollers are all cast to our specific requirements. The castings
are carried out by a family run foundry in Birmingham and machined
and finished in our small factory in Barnet.
The company has now moved into the third generation and they in
turn are committed to continue the production of the current range
of printing equipment, with the ambition to add to this range.
