1902 ".... Arthur Bergtheil, Henry Wilson Young, Edward Bergtheil, and Robert Ord Ritchie, trading as Bergtheil and Young, of No. 12, Camomile-street, in the city of London, Electrical Engineers and Contractors," petitioned for the continuation of the voluntary winding up of the Celvicol Company Limited...

1909 '.... ventilation has had special attention in all the five new Orient liners, and the efficiency of the electrically-driven punkahs over the wing tables in the dining-saloon invests with special interest the illustrations we give of the Bandy punkah, made by Messrs. Bergtheil and Young, London. ... The motor, it will be seen, is rigidly attached to the ceiling, and on to its projecting spindle there is fitted a leather cone for frictional drive. To the punkah frame there is attached a sector, also covered with leather on both sides. This leather sector is formed eccentrically with the radius rods, and the outer and inner surfaces of the sector are alternately pressed on the top and bottom of the driving cone respectively, and a to-and-fro motion is thus given. The peculiar “flick” essential to the efficiency of the punkah as an air-wafting device is obtained by a rapid reverse as the sector leaves the side of the driving pulley to return on the other side, and this rapid reverse is obtained by springs acting through the levers shown.'[2]. See illustration.
