Selecting the right Plastic material for your product or application can be complicated to say the least.

Here at WKH GROUP we have decades of experience of industrial plastics and their uses , and with our sister company ATEX MATERIALS INTERNATIONAL we now have stocks of the most specialised of ranges of plastics. to see our guidance page please click below.

Choosing the right material

WKH Group can help guide you through identifying the best industrial plastics for your requirement, our experience in the machining and fabrication of a wide range of plastics can be called upon to help you make the right choice.

We maintain good levels of stock including specialist and performance plastics,  samples are always available for testing if required

If you have an application requiring Plastic components please contact us to discuss the best quality engineered industrial plastics to fulfil your requirements.

Here at WKH we now have a designated area for compatibility testing of certain materials, mostly clear Polycarbonates and Acrylics ( including ATEX complying PC 350 / AC300 & Lead Acrylic H8 to H70 Radiation resisting / shielding ) with Bonding and cleaning products.

This is useful for customers who need to be confident about the care of their product when regular cleaning is required  i.e Cast Acrylic isolators for the clean air Industry & screens or visors where optical clarity is crucial.
