In the competitive world of plastic moulding, finding cost-effective production solutions without compromising quality is key to maximising return on investment (ROI). This blog explores various strategies to achieve cost-effectiveness in plastic moulding, addressing the crucial question for businesses: “What are the most cost-effective moulding options for my business?” Understanding Cost in Plastic Moulding The […]
Introduction The global manufacturing industry has been evolving rapidly, and sustainability is at the forefront of this revolution. The circular economy, characterized by resource efficiency, recycling, and reuse, offers an alternative to the traditional linear economy, which is a one-way street leading to waste. As an integral part of the manufacturing sector, plastic injection moulding […]
Polyethylene is one of the most common types of thermoplastics used in the plastic injection moulding process. It is used to manufacture a wide range of products from shopping bags through to children’s toys. Based in the West Midlands, our company works with many different materials when it comes to plastic injection moulding, including polyethylene. […]
A Guide for B2B Companies Looking for the Best Material for Injection Moulding As a plastic injection moulding company, we know how important it is to select a suitable material for your final product. It is crucial for ensuring that your product holds the right properties, such as durability, flexibility and corrosion resistance. Additionally, it […]
Plastic injection moulds are the consequence of forcing melted plastic into a mould to produce a robust plastic part. Once the plastic has cooled, the part can then be ejected. Injection moulding is often used in mass production and prototyping. It is also one of the main processes for producing plastic products for a range […]
Plastic injection moulding is becoming increasingly adopted in the automotive industry. As suppliers of automotive moulded plastic parts, we are knowledgeable in the power of this manufacturing method. ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is commonly in use to produce an array of automotive plastic components. For instance, fixtures, enclosures and housings, lenses and lighting fixtures and […]

Plastic injection moulds are becoming increasingly popular in many major industries, including engineering. Plastics are in use in every engineering area, because they are an efficient and practical material. In addition, they optimise the reliability and performance of machinery and other vital components. However, without an expertly led method of manufacturing, applications wouldn’t see the […]
Both thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics injection moulding can produce applications for a number of industries. For instance, automotive and aerospace. However, their properties and finishing differ. Thermoplastic pellets soften during the curing process, offering an opportunity for remoulding. On the other hand, thermosets contain polymers that cross-link during curation, causing an irreversible chemical bond. Here […]
