Testimonials from just a few of UK Extrusion’s customers.
We originally purchased the Plasmac ALPHA XS granulating machine to recycle and reuse the waste plastic film and side trims from blown film extrusion lines. My team installed the ALPHA XS and the commissioning & training was carried out by UK Extrusion. Since purchasing the ALPHA XS our waste has decreased significantly and the quality of pellet created from XS machine is exceptionally good. The back up from the sales and spare parts teams are also outstanding and I would have no hesitation in using UK Extrusion for any future projects.
We hope to purchase another ALPHA XS machine in the next few months to add to our recycling portfolio
Steve White – Engineering Manager, Alfaplas UK
“We purchased two benchtop extrusion lines through UK extrusion. We highlighted that our main challenge would be getting both pieces of equipment physically into our small lab. UK Extrusion went above and beyond with helping us with this and coordinated all the logistics involved including the machine movers. Having these pieces of equipment has allowed us to take many processes (that we would have previously outsourced) in-house and hence accelerate our R&D. They’ve also been on hand to help with any technical challenges we’ve encountered since machine installation and connected us to a network of many other extrusion specialists relevant to our field.”

“We have recently installed a blown multilayer co-ex blown film line. The project was complex and challenging and required expert advice and understanding of our needs from the outset. UK Extrusion together with manufacturer Bandera worked tirelessly and seamlessly from start to finish and beyond, to ensure our goals were achieved. The level of support was unparalleled. UK Extrusion provide an exceptional service in the UK that no-one else in Blown Film offers. One of the reasons we chose UK Extrusion is that not only are they UK based which makes communication much easier, but they have UK based engineers to support installations, commissioning, training and most importantly continued service.”

“We purchased a Plasmac Alpha 60Eco which was delivered and installed in April 2020, under far from ‘normal’ circumstances due to the Covid19 pandemic. UK Extrusion were able to continue with the installation and commissioning whilst adhering to social distancing requirements. This machine allows us to reclaim production waste from the production of our Silawrap Net Replacement Film, providing not only savings in raw materials, but also preventing this waste from ending up in landfill.”

“Our relationship with UK Extrusion goes back several years. We originally purchased a Plasmac Alpha 60HC to utilise our production waste by reclaiming and pelletising our start-up waste, including flake product and coiled films. . The level of service we continue to receive from UK Extrusion makes Bond-a-Band feel that our custom is truly valued and that is worth a lot.”
Jonathan Heaton – Managing Director, Bond-A-Band Transmissions Ltd
“This was our 4th Bandera Rigid Sheet Extrusion Line. Bandera built a bespoke multilayer PET Rigid Film extrusion line with advanced winding capabilities to meet our urgent requirements for our food packaging sector clients.
In common with many other manufacturers around the world, we saw the possibility of our time schedule for installation and commissioning being severely disrupted due to the Covid19 pandemic. However, Bandera’s ability to continue manufacturing and UK Extrusion’s ability to provide UK based engineers, who could work within the exceptional health and safety requirements, meant that our excellent engineering team at AMB alongside UK Extrusion & Bandera were able to have the line installed, running and producing much needed extra capacity for our clients.
The consistent communication between UK Extrusion and AMB gave us confidence throughout the delivery, installation, and commissioning phases.
UK Extrusion’s continued support with our Bandera lines is first class and AMB will continue working alongside for many years to come.”
