Murex Limited was a leading British provider of services to metallurgists, smelters and refiners, and welders. It was an original constituent of the FT 30 index of leading stocks on the London Stock Exchange. ==History== Murex was founded in 1909 as an iron founder and a ferroalloy manufacturer. The company moved to Rainham, Essex in 1917. In the 1930s, Murex made large quantities of electrodes at their factory in Waltham Cross,〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=UKWelder forum )〕 and many ships including HMS ''Ark Royal'' and ''Queen Elizabeth 2'' have been welded using Murex equipment.〔 The business was sustained by a high level of activity during World War II, but after the war ended, its profits reduced substantially.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lex: The first column to appear in the FT )〕 It fell out of the FT 30 index in 1967 when its share price declined, and it was replaced by Beechams. Welding equipment made by Murex occasionally comes up for sale. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Murex (company)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
