Adam Hooper
Director

Passionate about rubber since 1958

We have everything at our fingertips to help you achieve your goal.

With facilities for the full design, development, testing and manufacture process on site, we are ideal partners for businesses looking for solutions in elastomers.

Whether you need design, testing and materials support through to manufacture, or just a small part of that process, we are set up to work with you to solve your problem.

Project management and integrated solutions are an expectation in modern engineering and manufacturing environments. We have class-leading software for ERP, scheduling, design and project work.

We welcome customers to our site if it’s convenient for you, as it often helps to have an understanding of the overall processes involved in moulding and the associated services. However, we have detailed some of our facilities on the pages below.
