About Dewtec
Hydraulic & Pneumatic Solutions Backed by Experience

Our Story
Built on Experience. Backed by History.
Dewtec Ltd is not a business that started from scratch. It is built on decades of hands-on engineering experience, technical knowledge, and industry development.
The story begins in February 1982, when Paul Dewar founded Dewar Engineering in Levin. From those early days, the business focused on practical solutions and building strong relationships within the industry.
In 1989, Paul expanded into hydraulics by acquiring the ENZED Manawatu franchise, introducing specialised hydraulic hose and fitting services to the region.
By 1992, the business had grown into Combined Industrial Services (CIS), developing into a multi-branch operation with six locations nationwide.
In 2007, CIS split into two separate entities.
Dewtec Ltd took on the hydraulics and pneumatics division, including the Palmerston North, Masterton, and Hastings branches, while the other part of the business continued on its own path.
This transition allowed Dewtec to sharpen its focus, becoming a specialist in hydraulic and pneumatic systems while carrying forward the experience and capability built over decades.
In 2025, the business entered its next chapter when Shane Dewar took over ownership, continuing the family legacy while driving the company forward with a modern, growth-focused approach.
