ABOUT THE OWNER

The owner of HYDAIR, James Boshell, has been in the Fluid Power Industry for over 40 years, and learned his trade in the UK and Germany, but above all has been well schooled in that wonderful institution, The University of Life.

James is responsible for the technical input of the company and has the backing of Professional Engineers fully trained in all aspects of Mechanical and Fluid Power Engineering.

With his many contacts both local and overseas he has built up an enviable and solid reputation of being able to supply equipment from the simplest valve to extremely large and high tech components.

James as owner and CEO still maintains a direct contact with his clients and Hydair’s staff have all been trained with that same ethic in mind. His mantra is that an ‘Owner managed operation’ will always have the edge over a simply ‘managed’ operation.
