Custom Plastic Manufacturing Processes
We manufacture components made from a wide range of plastics – from polypropylene, PP copolymer, homopolymer and compounds, through nylons, glass filled nylons and PVC polyvinyl chloride to Evoprene®, Santoprene® and other TPEs, TPR, TPU and TPV (see below for full list of polymers we work with).
We can provide compounds that are flame retardant, chemical resistant, military grade, WRAS / Water Safe / Water Council / British Gas / UL approved, and that comply with Food Quality Standards, Medicine & Healthcare regulations and British Standards. We also have a Class 7 Clean Room for inspection and finishing.
