Commencing as a private company, Malcolm Moore Pty Ltd in 1921, with directors Malcolm Moore, Theodore Lloyd and Donald Baxter, it became Malcolm Moore Ltd when it was floated as a public company in March 1927. The firm took advantage of the emerging use of electric arc welding in fabrication and employed some of the leading engineers in this field to make a wide range of equipment - from small tractors to large industrial cranes and conveyors, as well as hundreds of road rollers and road graders. Branches of the firm were progressively opened in every State capital and several provincial centres. During the Second World War, the firm manufactured narrow-gauge rail tractors for the Army, and these were later reused in forestry, sugarcane and irrigation industries. Most of the machinery was emblazoned with the distinctive diamond-shaped 'Malcolm Moore Ltd, Engineers' plate or the circular 'MM' logo. Some of its related patents are detailed below.
