We are pleased to announce one of our latest clients is The Plasticom Group. Plasticom is most easily described as an injection moulding company, although their services go far beyond this description.

Their main services are Injection Moulding, Toolmaking, Assembly and Packaging. From Design for Manufacture and Prototype Tooling through to full Production Tooling they are capable of supplying most injection moulding needs.
Moulding
Moulding runs can be in batches of hundreds through to continuous depending on their customers’ needs. They continue to run production through the night when required.
Plasticom use both single and twin shot (2 shot) moulding and over moulding. They can accommodate two colour moulding and prototype moulding, and have capacity for short, medium and large batch continuous runs. Shot weights can be up to 2Kg in their larger machines. In-mould labelling is now in greater demand as it speeds up the manufacturing process as a whole for some customers.
