Joyce Loebl & Co was founded in 1951 by Herbert Loebl and Robert Joyce. Initially a repair and callibration service for electrical items, the company quickly began to specialise in the production of high tech scientific equipment focussed mainly on the newly emerging medical laboratory analysis market. By 1953 Joyce-Loebl had collaborated With Dr Lindsay Molyneux to develop and market the Photodensitometer, with the firm later developing a range of medical laboratory equipment including the Chromograph, the Chromoscan, the Roboscan, the Microdesitometer and the Mecolab system.

In 1969 Joyce and Loebl sold all Joyce-Loebl equity to Technical Operations Inc, with Herbert Loebl remaining Chairman and Managing Director until 1970. Herbert Loebl remained on the Board of Technical Operations Inc until 1974.

Flambard was a North East-based independent press which published a range of poetry and fiction, as well as some non-fiction and visual-art books. It was particularly focused on publishing new and neglected writers in the North of England, as well as promoting live literature.

Flambard Press was established in 1990 by Peter and Margaret Lewis. They began using early word processors and desktop publishing at Newcastle University, before securing funding from Northern Arts. In 2000, they were named a Regularly Funded Organisation of the Arts Council to cater for neglected writers of both poetry and prose, particularly of, but not exclusively from the northern region.

Over 20 years they published 129 titles, including several which were shortlisted for major prizes such as the Booker Prize, the T.S. Eliot Prize, and the Whitbread First Novel Award. Flambard Press supported many writers from the North East and Cumbria, as well as publishing authors from across the UK and overseas.

Flambard Press was supported by the Arts Council England until 2012, and officially closed in March 2013.
