PROJECT REQUIREMENT

An energy provider, set to bring a new smart meter to the market, wanted its product to be manufactured using entirely recycled materials. It was our task to source a recycled polymer that met their specific credentials and fire retardant requirements.

KEY FACTORS

Central to securing and delivering this project was our wide range of suppliers, expertise in materials and polymers, and a proven track record and working relationship with the design house.

CURRENT STATUS

The project is now underway, and we are currently producing seven tools ready for the manufacture of the smart meters.

"THIS WAS A PARTICULARLY TRICKY SET OF DEMANDS AS RECYCLED MATERIALS ARE GENERALLY NOT OF HIGH ENOUGH QUALITY TO MEET OUR STRINGENT QUALITY STANDARDS. HOWEVER, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SOURCE AN OPTION THAT HAS PRODUCED GREAT RESULTS. IT’S FAR SUPERIOR TO STANDARD RECYCLED MATERIALS, AND WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO INTRODUCE IT TO OUR OTHER CUSTOMERS SO THAT THEY TOO CAN CHOOSE THIS OPTION."
