STOP PRESS – plastics, print and people

Although our clients ‘Think Plastic’ right across the UK, Europe and further afield to America and South Africa, Sinclair & Rush (UK & Europe) is an established manufacturing business based in the heart of The Garden of England - Kent. The River Medway runs through Maidstone and historically formed an important transport link with Rochester and beyond, via the Thames Estuary to a world of trade.

Trade has always been at the heart of this rich, fertile county – first to cross and last to leave for most land and sea visitors, whether for business or for pleasure.

Perhaps it’s because commerce flows in Kentish blood that organisations such as The Chambers of Commerce; Institute of Directors; The 5:50 Club and other business forums thrive in the county.

Sinclair & Rush, whilst managing a global presence, does not forget its local roots and participates energetically in local and national business groups, exchanging management ideas and introducing opportunities for profitable growth.

Kent is also home to the KM Group – Kent and Medway’s largest commercial media company. Their ‘paid for’ newspapers comprise 10 titles and sell over 100,000 copies a week, reaching 1 in 5 adults in Kent. The flagship Kent Messenger first published as The Maidstone Telegraph in 1859. As well as a number of special business feature editions, a further 250,000 papers print under the ‘Extra’ masthead and are distributed free across the county.

For those who prefer to listen to the sounds of Kent – not larks rising, hay wains creaking and hops a popping on the wire, but music, news, sport, views and competitions – 148,000 good Kentish folk listen to the sound of KMFM, the KM Group’s own radio station.

Being aware of the environment in which we live and work is important for any business, whether you are serving the local community or are simply part of it. Understanding its heritage is important too. After all, this is where we draw the essential skills of our staff from. It is where the service engineers come from who keep our phones, computers and production machinery going – even our coffee machine and water fountains … its all an essential part of the business infrastructure.

So, “if you are serious about being a business in Kent, it pays to be involved” said Peter Boulton, MD, Sinclair & Rush. And if that means stepping up to the mic with the Chairman of the KM Group on an invitation only visit to KMFM then that’s what you do … isn’t it Peter?

Sinclair & Rush is located on the appropriately named Twenty Twenty Industrial Estate just one mile off junction 5 of the M20. With perfect vision, the Estate’s road infrastructure is designed to accommodate even the largest articulated transport vehicles.

From S&R’s access-friendly loading bays, plastic caps, sleeves, plugs and grips are efficiently shipped out to ports, rail heads and clients across the UK and beyond. The products are designed to protect industrial components from contamination in their manufacture and finishing processes as well as from damage in transit.

Today, Kent – tomorrow, the world.

Think Plastic ~ we do … even here, in The Garden of England.

Think Plastic ~ we do.

Put us to the test.

We work with manufacturing companies in the UK & Europe, who have problems protecting or finishing their products. We manufacture and supply solutions for this through a wide variety of plastic mouldings, caps, plugs and sleeves, which means they... or indeed you.... reduce the risk of damage or contamination, so your customers receive a top quality product every time.
