Manufacturing Capacities
  • Our Current Capacities allow for 30,000 finished products per month.
  • This equates to 200,000 Individual pieces per month.
  • Factory Upgrades scheduled for Q3 2024 will double our output.
  • Seal Plant upgrades scheduled Q4 2024.
  • Secondary Plant Scheduled Mid 2025 – This will double our capacity.
Manufacturing Process
  • Material Selection: The process begins by selecting the appropriate raw material, usually in the form of pellets or granules. Common materials include various types of plastics, such as polyethylene, polystyrene, or polypropylene.
  • Melting: The selected material is fed into a heated barrel of an injection molding machine. Inside the barrel, the pellets are gradually heated to their melting point, forming a viscous molten liquid.
  • Injection: Once the material is molten and homogenized, it’s injected into a mould cavity under high pressure. The mould is typically made of two halves, and the molten material fills the cavity to take the shape of the desired product.
  • Cooling: After the mould cavity is filled, the molten material is allowed to cool and solidify within the mould. Cooling can be accelerated using cooling channels or other methods to maintain efficiency in production.
  • Ejection: Once the material has solidified, the mould opens, and the newly formed part is ejected from the mould cavity. This step can involve automatic ejection mechanisms or manual removal, depending on the complexity of the part.
  • Finishing: Post-processing steps might be necessary, such as trimming excess material, adding surface finishes, or performing additional treatments to achieve the desired final product.

Not All Plastics are Bad

Using recycled cardboard for packaging helps in reducing waste, conserving resources, and minimising the environmental impact of manufacturing processes. Additionally, it promotes a circular economy by giving new life to materials that might otherwise be discarded.


Quality Control

Manufacturing quality and control systems are essential components to our production process. They ensure that our products meet specific standards, are consistent in quality, and comply with regulatory requirements.

  1. Quality Management Systems (QMS)
  2. Quality Control (QC)
  3. Statistical Process Control (SPC)
  4. Lean Manufacturing
  5. Total Quality Management (TQM)
  6. Automated Inspection Systems
  7. Documentation and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
  8. Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA)
By integrating these systems and practices into our manufacturing processes, we achieve a higher product quality, reduce waste and rework, enhance customer satisfaction, and ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations.
