Allplastics Engineering can supply custom made Polyurethane parts for a diverse range of applications.
Recently Allplastics supplied John Holland Rail with black Polyurethane Bumpers for their newly constructed train repair facilities in Auburn, Sydney. The material was chosen due to its impact strength, ease of manufacture and wear as well as resistance to a wide variety of lubricants and chemicals that are used in the railway overhaul workshops.

Custom made Plexiglas red tint and blue tint from Allplastics were selected for the “Gates of light” project designed by artist Khaled Sabsabi and commissioned by the Department of “Urban Growth” NSW for their site in Campbelltown.
The result was a spectacular display of constellations which were lasercut from 10 mm sheets specifically to suit the artist’s unique designs and colour combinations.
The Plexiglas shapes were installed in steel structures fabricated by QME (Quality Manufacturing Engineers).

First impressions are always important. This principle is applicable to corporate fit-outs. Sating Finish Green Pep Core translucent panels were supplied and cut by Allplastics for the front of the reception counter of a Dental clinic in Ryde.
The design composite was chosen due to its superior strength, rigidity and subtle light diffusion properties. The size of the panels (3 metes x 1 meter) was also advantage for the location.

The last works created by the sculptor Sir Anthony Caro in the two years before his death in 2013 will be the focus of a major exhibition at Annely Juda Fine Art in London.
Regarded as one of the greatest British sculptors of his generation, Caro’s long career is characterised by his innovative use of materials.
Between 2011–2013 Caro began to experiment with Perspex, a material that he had only employed in one previous sculpture, the 2000 Duccio Variations No. 5. Initially interested in the transparent quality of glass, Caro turned to Perspex as a less fragile and easier material to work with.
