The industry standard for durability
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)

The industry standard for durability

High-impact strength and versatile finishing for industrial housings

ABS is a cornerstone of our thermoforming process, valued for its exceptional impact resistance and structural rigidity. It is the ideal material for exterior vehicle fenders, machine guards, and internal trim where durability is paramount.

Polycarbonate (PC)

Unmatched clarity and strength

High-performance protection for high-stakes environments

When a project demands optical clarity combined with extreme toughness, Polycarbonate is the superior choice. It offers significantly higher impact resistance than acrylic, making it ideal for medical device housings, protective screens, and electrical enclosures.

Chemical resilience and flexibility
Polypropylene (PP) & HDPE

Chemical resilience and flexibility

Engineered for the rigours of agriculture and heavy industry

For environments exposed to harsh chemicals or extreme moisture, we utilise Polypropylene and High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE). These materials are known for their fatigue resistance and excellent chemical compatibility, making them the standard for agricultural components, fluid tanks, and undertrays.

Acrylic & PETG

Aesthetic clarity and ease of forming

Specialist materials for retail, POS, and clinical applications

We work with Acrylic and PETG for applications requiring a balance of aesthetic appeal and functional performance. Acrylic is favoured in the retail and POS sectors for its brilliant clarity and UV stability, while PETG offers a tougher, more impact-resistant alternative that is also food-safe and chemically resistant.

The future of lightweight engineering
Advanced & Sustainable Composites

The future of lightweight engineering

High-strength substrates including flax, basalt, and honeycomb cores

We champion the use of sustainable composite materials, including flax and basalt fibre reinforced panels and expanded honeycomb cardboard sandwich constructions. These innovative substrates offer exceptional strength-to-weight ratios while significantly reducing the environmental footprint of the finished component.

PC-ABS (Polycarbonate-ABS Polyblend)

The ultimate fusion of strength and finish

Thermal stability and impact resistance for demanding environments

This premium engineering alloy is specifically selected for components requiring high impact strength, even at low temperatures, alongside exceptional dimensional stability. It is the material of choice for complex interior and exterior automotive trim, mass transit components, and ruggedised electronic enclosures.
