In 2019, we acquired Light Patterns and Tooling Ltd, a company specialising in aluminium tooling and finishing fixtures for the rotational moulding industry and all types of pattern making for the foundry industry.
Our proven track record in rotational moulding services
For more than twenty years, the business has provided design, manufacture, service & repair, that is considered second to none in the UK. Its repair service has proved a more competitive alternative to having tools repaired or modified by the original manufacturer, many of which are increasingly based outside the UK.
Our fully skilled, time-served team of pattern makers and engineers have a wealth of knowledge and experience of working in metal, resins and wood. This makes our team a great fit for your next development.
We have the facilities to accommodate work of varying sizes.
How business can benefit from rotational moulding
Rotational moulding is a process that uses heat and a revolving mould to produce hollow, one-piece plastic parts that are robust and cost effective.
It is popular across many different industries, including the automotive, agricultural, furniture, leisure, and packaging industries. This is an appealing process for a number of reasons:
- Low operational cost.
- Consistent wall thickness.
- It uses recyclable material that helps reduce environmental impact.
- Lightweight material.
- Highly durable one-piece product.
- Can easily incorporate your design element of choice, whether that be logos, recesses, spouts or bosses.
