Solent Acrylic is a sub-contract plastic manufacturing company with a wealth of experience in bespoke acrylic fabrication. We specialise in preparing and forming plastic materials and acrylics for a variety of engineering applications. Our clients come from various industries, including construction, food, health, architectural design, aerospace, model making, marine, defence, pharmaceuticals, Point-of-Sale (POS), retail, signage and many other sectors.
We have a team highly skilled and vastly experienced engineering professionals who use state-of-the-art fabrication facilities to cut, etch, form, glue, rout and carry out most of the processes required to make finished products from raw acrylic and plastic sheets. All of these operations are completed in-house under close observation of a quality management team.
Solent is known for its ability to take even the most basic idea and transform it into a practical, cost-effective solution. We’ll produce a precise specification based on your application requirements, and from it we’ll fabricate quality sub-components, equipment and instruments that meet and exceed all your expectations.
We’re happy to take on projects of almost any size, from prototypes to large batches. And whatever your requirements, we’ll always provide a solution that’s on time and within budget – without ever compromising on quality.
Solent has a vastly experienced plastic fabrication team able to prepare and form a variety materials commonly used in engineering applications. They include:
All of these materials are quick to process and offer strong, attractive results once formed. They are supplied to us in sheet form and are available in many different colours.
We are happy to undertake projects of all sizes, right down to individual “one-offs”, and we can offer product assembly services in addition to component manufacturing if required.
The ability to bend acrylics and other plastics allows us to fabricate all sorts of products and components. To produce a quality, consistent bend we use one of two methods. These are:
If you would like to find out more about either of these techniques, just give us a call on 023 92 232348.
Our machines are big enough to handle the largest sheet materials and are tough enough to take on even the heaviest production schedules. They also enable us to quickly alternate between high throughout mass production and the bespoke one-off jobs required for prototyping. Visit us online to find out more.
Solent are able to manufacture acrylic display cabinets and display cases in almost any shape or size you require. We can even incorporate lighting options, including ultra bright LEDs, which are more efficient and have a lower heat output than conventional light sources.
More and more museums and galleries are using acrylic as an alternative to glass because it is smarter, lighter, safer and because it can be adapted to suit individual size requirements more easily and less expensively. Whatever your design idea, we can develop it. And, if you need design advice, we can provide that too!
Challenge us with your ideas. Call us on 023 92 232348.
Over the years, Solent has helped design and manufacture a number of products for hospital and health applications, including:
We manufacture acrylic enclosures for Bigneat Containment Technology, who are Europe’s leading providers of enclosures to science and industry. Their cabinets are used to protect laboratory staff from chemical fumes, air-borne particles and bio-hazards.
Solent has also manufactured power handling chambers, mail sorting gloveboxes and electrophoresis instruments. To find out more, please head over to our website.
Our engineers can handle a variety of materials, but the plastics most commonly employed in our facilities are:
