Custom Made Vacuum Formed Transit Trays:

Plastics By Design Ltd specializes in vacuum forming and its diverse applications. The vacuum forming process is versatile, cost-effective, and allows for rapid production of prototypes before moving into full-scale manufacturing. Bespoke trays offer several advantages over standard packaging, including no set-up requirements, reduced contamination risks, and the ability for re-use and recycling.

• Material Range: Trays can be made from lightweight materials (500 microns) to heavy-duty options (up to 6mm PS/PE), depending on application needs.
• Resistant Materials: Oil and cleaning agent-resistant materials ensure trays can be cleaned and reused multiple times.
• Customization: Trays can be engraved or printed with identification codes for batch control, improving traceability and stock management.

Benefits of Quality Plastic Transit Trays:

• Better Protection: Prevents breakages during transport.
• Improved Stock Control: Easier tracking and handling of parts.
• Cost-Effective: Reduces space and shipping costs.
• Efficient Handling: Streamlines the movement of awkward components.
• Reduced Waste: Reusable and recyclable, helping meet ISO 9002 standards.

Ideal for both internal transport within assembly lines and external shipping to customers, these trays are designed to securely hold goods in place. Whether for single or multiple uses, they can be tailored to be stackable and nestable for optimal space usage.
