What’s in YOUR wellies?


Those of you fellow ‘Plastic Thinkers’ who follow these blog stories will know Sinclair & Rush as a formidable global force in the manufacture, sourcing and distribution of solutions in plastic to protect, finish and package your valuable products, components and works in progress.

Indeed, our new You Tube video is a succinct presentation of the same: http://youtu.be/x6jMsE-WF20.

Please, take a look if you haven’t seen it yet.

 
However, as you will have seen by the diversity of plastic plug, cap, sleeve, box, tube and grip applications covered in these stories, we are also known for our ability to create products to satisfy a huge variety of needs. Our 60 years expertise in the field helps us to think outside the box. After all, it’s only when you have the skills to make the perfect clear plastic box that you create the ability to think outside it.

Think wellies for instance. Welly key rings. Welly pen pots. Welly herb pots.

Touchline Promotions is a successful business sourcing and supplying some quite unique products for the corporate promotions  market. Many years back, Touchline approached Sinclair & Rush with a ground-breaking concept of dip moulding their promotional welly products. We made their idea a reality for them.
 
 
Take the herb pot wellies for instance; wouldn’t it be great to have your brand emblazoned on a pair of mini plastic wellies, sitting on the corner of your customers’ desks, yet changing daily as the herbs grow. Let them collect the welly set, with coriander growing on one side of the screen, pens potted on the other and their keys welly well ringed in their pockets.

Sharon in Customer Services and Jim in our Sales department have established a good working relationship with Fiona at Touchline Promotions. Special attention is paid to the batch packaging and delivery instructions which keenly reflect the need to treat the consignments as fragile so as not to cause deformation in any way.

We dip mould the boots in the colours required and Touchline brand the pots and key rings for their own client needs.

Also, possibly because of the vagaries of the promotions market with its seasonal highs and lows, we need to respond quickly to requests for additional product so that Touchline can add their own flourish when basil potted wellies become the flavour of that particular line.

The more we are able to listen to customers and understand the applications to which our plastic products are used, the better we can fit our solutions and service levels to the need. That’s why our Customer Services and Sales departments work so closely together, to make Sinclair & Rush customers as happy as they clearly are.

So, if you’re thinking promotions …think plastic wellies ~ 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.
