Other manufacturing processes available include: extrusion, stamping, dip moulding and compression moulding.

"The New Business Development team makes Heyco a 'one-stop shop' for plastic components".
"Customers can select from a comprehensive range of more than 10,000 catalogue products or call on our team to source or commission the design of the desired solution", says Martin Brown, Managing Director, Heyco. Request free introductory details about products from Anixter Components ...
