Orthos (Engineering) Ltd was incorporated as a limited company by the late Dr. Rettig in 1956. Some years later the company was relocated from Newcastle to the more central location of Market Harborough in Leicestershire, where we have remained ever since.

People often ask us what the word “Orthos” means. In truth there are many different definitions in circulation, most linked to the Greek word “Ortho” but the one we tend to answer with most is “straight and upstanding” – since these words best describe the foundation principles of the business.

From the outset Orthos has operated as a manufacturer’s agent, supplying process equipment at the heart of industrial processes like yours.  Two of Orthos’ earliest principals were Alexanderwerk AG and Maschinenfabrik Gustav Eirich GmbH & Co. KG (aka ‘Eirich‘) both of which, we’re proud to say, remain with us to this day.

As the process industries have changed, so has the company. We are constantly reviewing our product range to ensure that we’re offering the most relevant capital equipment for powder processing.  So whatever your need, whether it’s new equipment, used equipment, or just advice, you can call on us to discuss your next process improvement – it’s our business to help you.
