Enhance your product design with our expert application development services. Specializing in innovative material selection, our technical team boasts extensive knowledge in polymers, driving product and technological advancements. By collaborating with us from the initial stages, we ensure the selection of the ideal resin for your application and manufacturing process, optimizing both technical and aesthetic performance.
We pride ourselves on our ability to provide quick and accurate colour matches. Our service offers custom colour matching for polymers, designed to help manufacturers achieve precise and consistent colours for their products. We can match existing colour samples or create entirely new shades based on customer requirements.
Our technical support team is ready to assist in testing and analyzing your materials and to address any issues that may arise during your manufacturing process. Our well-equipped laboratory offers various services, including colour measurement, polymer structure analysis, composition, and the evaluation of mechanical, thermal, and flammability properties. Additionally, our collaboration with external institutions expands our capabilities in testing and analysis, providing you with comprehensive support.
At PCL, we operate a highly versatile compounding facility that specialises in producing a wide range of high-performance thermoplastic compounds. The plant is equipped with state-of-the-art extrusion lines, allowing for precise mixing and modification of polymer materials. Not only does this enable the production of customised compounds with enhanced properties such as flame retardancy, UV stability, and impact resistance, but also allows us to cater for order volumes ranging from 25kg to tens of tonnes.
With a keen focus on quick turnaround times, PCL aim to deliver high quality compounded material in line with our customers expectations.
FTIR is a powerful analytical technique used to identify materials and molecular composition. It provides detailed insights into the materials molecular structure by measuring how a sample absorbs infrared light. This makes it invaluable for various industries, particularly for analysing polymers.
At PCL, we offer FTIR analysis free of charge to our customers, to support material identification, quality control, and research.
Since our creation in 1993 PCL have progressively increased the product range it offers to now include ABS, Polycarbonate, PC/ABS alloys, ASA and other engineering thermoplastics.
Our versatile manufacturing plant allows us to offer tailored materials, as demanded by your application.
What really differentiates us is the service we offer to our customers; from rapid colour matching, outstanding technical support and first-class product quality through to flexibility on the quantity ordered and super-fast delivery from our production plant in Durham, UK.
We have a great team that provides excellent customer service including hardworking production operators who work day and night to create materials according to your specifications.
