West Sussex Company wins a contract to supply products for the 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games.

Horsham, West Sussex -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/18/2012 -- Pentagon Plastics Ltd (http://www.pentagonplastics.co.uk ), incorporating Small Batch Plastics, has been a leading manufacturer of UK supplied Customer specific Plastic Injection Moulded products for the last 40 years. The business is supported by its own full In-House Toolroom and managed Rapid Prototyping facility delivering a flexible and comprehensive service into many industries.

2012 will be an historic year for the UK with the Olympics, Paralympics and Queens Diamond Jubilee putting us firmly on the map as not only a Country steeped in history but also one that can put on the greatest events. It should also be a celebration of UK manufacturing and an opportunity to showcase it to the World.

As a strong believer in the strength of UK manufacturing Pentagon Plastics are excited at playing a small part in the 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games by delivering product on behalf of LOCOG. The item in question is a Breech Flag used as a safety feature in the Rifle Shooting arena so Judges and Competitors have a visual aid as to the status of the firearm with regard to whether it has live ammo in the breech.

Paul Edwards, Managing Director of Pentagon Plastics said: "since Pentagon Plastics was formed we have been focused on playing our part in getting Customers to buy British and welcomed the opportunities that 2012 would offer UK manufacturing. When LOCOG called with a problem of requiring 3,000 off Breech Flags within a three week window Pentagon rose to the challenge. LOCOG could only supply a sample product of what they required but we managed to manufacture tooling and supply the finished products in time for the trial events being conducted at the Royal Artillery Barracks Olympic Venue, Woolwich.

The founder of both Small Batch Plastics Ltd and Pentagon Plastics Ltd, Jim Edwards, has been enjoying semi-retirement status for the past few years.

Jim has worked tirelessly to build the strong foundations of the business since first starting on his own in 1972 and his wealth of knowledge, tooling experience and commercial awareness is still invaluable to the business. Jim will not be embarking on full retirement just yet though so you will continue to find him in the office on a regular basis. (as well as in Spain and on the Golf Course)

However, as a business we feel it is important that it is controlled on a daily basis. It has therefore been agreed by the Directors to appoint Paul Edwards as the new Managing Director with immediate effect. Paul has become more and more involved in the overall running of the business since joining nearly 19 years ago to set up the Quality Management System. His role currently includes Sales, Marketing and overseeing the Financial aspects of the business so it is a natural progression.

Jim will take up the position of Chairman and Don Whitaker will continue in the crucial role of Production Director.

Directors comment: -

Paul, "I am really excited to be taking up the role and I hope all of the knowledge and experience I have gained from both Jim and Don will stand me in good stead. The future is looking very exciting for the business as we move forward with ideas for expansion whilst staying true to the ethos that the Company was built on......."

Jim, "It has always been on the cards that Paul would be ready to manage the business in due time. Coupled with Donald's experience and support they are very suited to continue the good work and expand the business......"

Don, "Having known Paul for many years both socially and as a work colleague, I am confident that the abilities he brings to the role of MD will take our established company forward from strength to strength......"

Paul Edwards, Director of Pentagon Plastics Ltd, reports further investment to enhance its supply into the Medical Industry.

Horsham, West Sussex -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/21/2011 -- Pentagon Plastics Ltd www.pentagonplastics.co.uk , incorporating Small Batch Plastics, have for nearly 40 years been a leading manufacturer of Customer specific Plastic Injection Moulded products. The business is supported by its own full In-House Toolroom, delivering a flexible and comprehensive service into many industries.

Over the last few years Pentagon Plastics Ltd has seen an organic growth of its Plastic Injection Moulding services into the Medical Industry. In this time the Company has built up an impressive portfolio of supplied products in the Drainable, Device and Disposable markets.

At the end of 2010 the Company assessed its current equipment with two goals in mind; to become more efficient whilst reducing its carbon footprint and to better align the Injection Moulding capabilities with the current market spread. The conclusion of the review was that it was time to purchase an all electric moulding machine with a high lock to shot weight ratio which offers a cleaner work area with a more efficient output. After working closely with the Carbon Trust, Pentagon Plastics Ltd secured an interest free loan to assist with the purchase and has sold on an older/less efficient machine to create the space within the Mould Shop.

Paul Edwards, Director of Pentagon Plastics Ltd comments:-

"The Medical Sector has become a very important element to our business and through our continuous review process we identified an area where the service we could offer our Customers would be enhanced by the introduction of an all electric Injection Moulding machine. Providing a clean work area is so important in the Medical Sector, and by rolling the improvements we make across all industries, it pushes the level of service we can offer forward in keeping with our business philosophy. We have a duty to our Customers to do what we can to maintain our pricing in difficult circumstances with the cost of utilities, raw materials and freight all on the increase over recent years and introducing more efficient machines goes some way towards this goal.".

Horsham, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/15/2010 -- Pentagon Plastics Ltd (http://www.pentagonplastics.co.uk), incorporating Small Batch Plastics, have for over 38 years been a leading manufacturer of Customer specific Plastic Injection Moulded products. The business is supported by the in-house Toolroom, staffed by multi-skilled and vastly experienced Toolmakers, and also offers a fully managed Rapid Prototyping service including SLA, SLS and Resin Mould Technology.

Owing to increased pressures within the Plastic Injection Moulding industry to reduce costs whilst maintaining an efficient lead time to market for new projects, Pentagon Plastics Ltd has seen demand for its Modular Plastic Injection Mould Tooling System significantly increase over the past 12 months. The Directors of Pentagon Plastics felt it was very important to maintain its pro-active approach to clients with new ideas, assisting them where possible to get to market in a timely manner, even with the current economic uncertainty. They also appreciate the importance of not alienating those clients with strong concepts but a tighter budget by promoting its practice of offering part ownership of Mould Tooling where possible.

Paul Edwards, Director of Pentagon Plastics Ltd comments:
"Our own Plastic Injection Moulding and Toolmaking services have always been at the core of our business strategy. As a supplier to many industries we have always strived to be pro-active and have taken great care to ensure that our Service remains flexible and aligned with the needs of our Customers to offer them the support they require. It is imperative that new design ideas are brought to the market and we feel that we have a duty to play our part in this process. We encourage both our Customers and Prospects to be open with us so we can tailor an Injection Moulding or Prototyping solution to meet their particular requirements or constraints. Having a close relationship, that is built on trust, is very important in this process and can have a huge impact on reducing overall cost from concept to delivery. Our cost effective Modular Tooling option has gone a long way to assisting in this process. Historically our range of standard bolster systems to accommodate our Customers core and cavity detail inserts has kept costs to a minimum and is especially supportive where low annual volumes would not justify a fully owned Mould Tool".
