The sectors we supply, the containers each one runs, and the moulds we have built for them.
The largest part of the work. Oil and lubricant packers have been the core customer since the beginning, and most of the tooling on this site was built for them.
Lubricant packs are unforgiving in a specific way: the container has to stack, the handle has to take the weight of a full five litres, and the closure has to seal against an oil rather than water. We build the container and its cap together so the pair is trialled as one.

Two-cavity blow mould for a one litre lubricant bottle, shown with its cavity and backing halves.
Two-cavity injection mould for a threaded closure, shown with the moulded caps.
Four-cavity injection mould for a moulded carry handle, with the components still on the runner.
Bottles where every cavity has to produce the same bottle, and the finish has to stay the same across the whole set.
Multi-cavity pharmaceutical tooling is a consistency problem before it is a machining problem. The cavities are cut and polished as a set and checked against each other rather than individually, because a buyer filling from six cavities cannot have one of them running different.

The company presentation groups these customers under "Pharmaceutical & Consumer Products" and does not split them further, so the same list appears on both pages.

Consumer bottles, jars and the closures that go on them, where the pack has to look right on a shelf as well as run on a line.
FMCG tooling carries the cosmetic burden: a grip panel, a label area that stays flat, a shoulder that does not wander. The geometry is often the difficult part rather than the engineering.

Bottles for dairy products, where the neck finish and a clean, even wall matter as much as the shape.
Named in the company presentation as one of the sectors we supply. No dairy tooling has been photographed for the site yet — the capability is there, the pictures are not.

Containers built to be handled, stacked and moved full — chemicals, agrochemicals and industrial fluids.
Industrial packs are judged on what survives a warehouse. Stacking load, handle strength and a pinch-off that holds after the container has been dropped are the things worth getting right, and they are all decided in the tool.
