Peerless Plastics & Coatings Announces Strategic Partnership with Bowles & Walker to Enhance Injection Moulding Solutions.
Peerless Plastics & Coatings, a leader in protective hard coating solutions, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Bowles & Walker Ltd, a specialist in precision injection moulding. This collaboration enhances the injection moulding services already offered by Peerless, delivering a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for customers in industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, and security.
With over 50 years of experience, Bowles & Walker has built a strong reputation for high-quality, bespoke injection moulding. Their expertise in design, tooling, and production complements Peerless Plastics & Coatings’ advanced protective coatings, which improve the durability, scratch resistance, anti-microbial, anti-glare, anti-static, and anti-fog properties of plastic components. Additionally, Peerless boasts a full CNC machine shop and fabrication services, enabling the production of high-precision, custom plastic components that can be coated for enhanced performance. Peerless also operates a state-of-the-art in-house print department, featuring large-format flatbed printers. This allows for custom designs on plastic panels, signage, and feature walls, which are then hard coated for added protection. By working together, the two companies provide an integrated manufacturing solution that ensures enhanced product performance and faster lead times.
STRENGTHENING UK MANUFACTURING WITH A SUSTAINABLE APPROACH
The partnership is also a significant step towards reducing carbon footprints and supporting sustainable UK manufacturing. Both companies operate within 30 minutes of each other, meaning projects can be managed efficiently with reduced transportation emissions and lower overall environmental impact.
