Yves Steverlynck, formally of South Africa, brought with himself a rich heritage in textile manufacturing. With humble beginnings, he established his factory in Bayswater, Victoria. With his son Francois, they laid the foundations of not only a flourishing business but also for a network of clients all over Australia, often driving thousands of kilometres to reach them. Their hard work paid off and today Crusader Hose is a well-known and respected Australian manufacturer of high-quality layflat hose.
