Further expansion took place in 1938 when the company established a mill to manufacture condenser yarn and tyre yarn for motor-tyre fabric. In 1938 they formed Davies Coop (Flax Industries) Pty Ltd to weave flax for tarpaulins, fire hoses and canvas. In 1969 Davies Coop & Company was taken over by Bradmill Industries Limited. |
