AJ Robotics 08 Nov 2017 PlastikMedia have designed and distributed a series of e-Promotions for AJ Robotics. The process has been very straight forward, from initial input on suitable content, through to their sending a final test email for me for ‘sign off’. Results have been excellent, our company having already secured a number of new and potential clients that we would otherwise have struggled to open discussions with.

DB-Automation 12 Oct 2017 It would be no over exaggeration to say that the concept for the PlastikCity Pavilion at Interplas and the attention it got was awesome! I just want to congratulate and thank you all for providing this opportunity for us, as we would not have invested in a conventional stand had you not offered this and we would have certainly missed out. Your support and professionalism throughout the show also did you all proud, it was great to feel part of what you created. - Nick Parker

Hardie Polymers 03 Oct 2017 Just wanted to say congratulations on the really excellent job you did for us at Interplas on the PlastikCity Pavilion ! Your marketing was first class and you created a real show presence for all the exhibitors - many thanks for organising it so well and always with a smile on your face ! We are delighted with the large number of enquiries we have had and the new contacts we have made, so much so that we have already been discussing Interplas 2020 ! - Fergus Hardie (MD)

Mj toolmakers 28 Aug 2017 We have found the site very useful and we have picked up several jobs and many quotes.

Plunkett Associates 21 Jun 2017 I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the marketing that you do for us. I keep sending these articles through and you keep doing something with them! We are very appreciative of the service you are providing in addition to our listing - and thought it was about time we said so. - Ruth Hepburn

Medical Moulded Products 17 Jan 2017 Having only joined PlastikCity two months ago, I was delighted to receive an excellent enquiry from a company requiring a Class 5 cleanroom moulding and assembly area for their production. They have already visited our site and we’re very hopeful of securing a good contract. Thanks PlastikCity for providing this platform for our industry - Pete Lucas (MD)

Polymer training and Innovation Centre 23 Nov 2016 PTIC contacted Plastikcity with a view to selling a used injection moulding machine. The machine was subsequently advertised by Plastikcity and received an excellent response and was sold within 48 hours. The service and support provided by Plastikcity was excellent, and we would use this service again in the future.

The R&D Factory Ltd 10 Oct 2016 “We occupied a booth in the PlastikCity ‘New Technology Hall’ for our Streamoulding process and was delighted when we received a great lead from a Tier 1 Automotive supplier. We are now organising trials and are optimistic for orders to follow” – John Heaton (The R&D Factory)

Deyn Plastics 05 Oct 2016 I used PlastikCity to get prices for a replacement 60mm Screw and Barrel. I got a prompt response from all of the suppliers I selected and made good savings against the OEM price. I will be using this excellent facility again.

Chess Plastics 04 Oct 2016 “Following an initial enquiry received through PlastikCity, we recently secured some technical Automotive injection moulding work from a UK based Japanese owned company. We now aim to develop a long term relationship with this leading company, with the potential for additional work going forward. Chess see PlastikCity as an excellent platform to showcase our capabilities and core strengths and will be exhibiting with them at Interplas next year.” - Glyn Olden (MD)
