Mace industries was first formed in 1986 by brothers Tony and Richard Mace. Having yearned for an easier way to load roof tiles to the roof, plans were made to build a machine.
The first machine was built in a potting shed in May 1986; this was trialled for the rest of the year lifting many tons of tiles and proved to be of great interest to all who saw it, so in September of 1986, the first ten machines were built, much modified from the original. And now with further ingenious input from father, Colin Mace, the machines were finished all but for a name. As roofers the slang term for loading a roof was "bumping out" and so the name "Bumpa" was born.
Today the new generation of "Bumpa" is the most popular
portable loading machine on the market, and that's
just one of the machines manufactured by Mace
