Everything For The Welder
WIRS was founded in 1965 by Walter Hayward and Alfred Tanner to supply the welding and engineering industries with a comprehensive range of quality cutting and welding equipment, consumables and allied accessories. Four years later, following the success of the Wolverhampton operation, a branch office and stores was opened in Stoke on Trent, which has more recently been re-sited in new warehouse and offices in Crabtree Close, Fenton, Stoke on Trent. During 1987 John Brain, the current managing Director, joined the WIRS board and under his direction the company has continued to grow in strength to become one of the major welding equipment and engineering distributor outlets in the UK. The new millennium was celebrated with the opening of 9,500 square foot operating facility adjoining its existing 7,500 square foot warehouse and head office, situated alongside the main Wolverhampton ring road and close to the major motorway network system. The new building incorporates additional bulk storage facilities, large product display area, demonstration area and a first class fully equipped service / repair department.
In June 2007 Salop Industrial and Welding Supplies, based in Shawbury near Shrewsbury, was acquired by the Company in order to develop the business in the Shropshire and Mid Wales area and moved into newly built premises on Battlefield Enterprise Park, Shrewsbury in late 2008.
Companies represented by WIRS include 3M, Binzel, ITW Welding Products, Nederman, Kemper, SIA Abrasives, Bohler Welding Group and Hyundai with both ITW and Nederman awarding the company UK top distributor awards for three consecutive years.
