History From 1950..............

 

 

Peter Stanley founded Stanley Plastics Ltd in 1950; Peter developed a

method of moulding transparent acrylic in attractive shapes to encase

objects to be preserved.

 

Peter Stanley formed Stanley Plastics Ltd in Hambrook, Sussex converting

his outbuildings to factory units to specialise in the manufacture of cast

acrylic products.

 

In the early seventies the company outgrew the Hambrook premises

and moved to new premises in Midhurst, Sussex. Resulting in a well

equipped casting and engineering facility with over 20 employees,

where we are still based today.

 

Peter Stanley developed new machinery and new casting techniques and

one of his great achievements was to develop a process for casting

seamless acrylic tubes and we are proud to say that we are still the only

UK manufacturer of Seamless Thin Wall Cast Acrylic Tubes.

 

In the late 1980s "Transpalite® SS" was developed, a very high grade Acrylic used in the manufacture of ASME / PVHO viewport windows, pressure cylinders and for many high specification engineered products. This material has been and is still a specified material for many engineered acrylic products.
