Injection Moulding Excellence

Incorporated in 1987 we have supplied technical mouldings for over 30 years. Focus on QUALITY, COST, DELIVERY & MANAGEMENT has been key to our success resulting in 20% annual growth since 2009.

With manufacturing sites in Fareham and Manchester we are ideally placed to cover daily deliveries with green packaging solutions across the UK. Our high quality injection moulding is supported by post mould operations such as printing, inserting, vacuum metalising and full product assembly.

We pride ourselves on our technical innovation in demanding sectors, such as LED Lighting & Inhalation Face Masks. Our R&D programme was established to meet the light reflection and heat management requirements of lighting OEM's.

Born from this innovation is our range of Pro-Reflect/Cool mouldings, which are used on products by the World’s leading lighting brands & our focus on insert over-moulding techniques has allowed us to produce PP/TPE Face Masks for export around the World.

Competitive Across the Globe

Our commercial aim is to be competitive across Western & Eastern Europe which is achieved by our lean and efficient manufacturing processes.

Studies show that overseas buyers view the UK as a producer of high quality moulded products.

As such we have worked closely with our customers on reshoring production from Asia and Europe aiming for 'total cost' saving.

Over £1.25 million has been reshored to Fareham and Manchester giving customers much more responsive lead-times, lower stock levels and improved cash flow.

15% of production is exported to the European Union, United States, Australia and China.

With degree level employees in the UK and Asia we tightly control tooling programmes ensuring production specifications are met.
