Henry The Hoover
One of Numatic's most popular products is a vacuum cleaner called Henry, which is easily distinguishable by the large smiling face on the front of the canister (there are two screen printed eyes and a mouth, and the vacuum's hose forms its nose). The idea for the name and design of the logo and smiling face with bowler hat was conceived by Graphic Designer, Michael Walsh FCSD and adopted by Numatic. Since the introduction of Henry in 1981, over 7 million have been produced worldwide.
