Bill Hamilton and Eric Bodley were the founder members of Hamilton Laboratory
Glass Ltd who had previously worked together at W G Flaige 'Excelo' Glass Works.
Bill Hamilton was a machinist and Eric Bodley was a glassblower, together making
the perfect partnership. In the early years they developed an extensive range of
glassware from volumetrics to water distillation. Eventually through demand the
company concentrated their production manufacturing onjointed ware and water
stills.
After William Hamilton's sudden death in 1987 Eric Bodley took over the sole
directorship of the company and over the years has been joined by his wife
Janet, son Christopher and daughters Lisa and Gemma. In 1993 the company
relocated to Margate where it is still based today.
