ABOUT US

We are the industry experts and market leaders in the supply and distribution of thermoformable and printable plastics to industries such as model makers through to Blue Chip OEM’s. We offer the widest range of thermoplastic materials in the UK including HIPS, ABS, ViPrint™, PVC, PET and PETG. Our products are available in a variety of colours, textures, sizes and thicknesses, and we also offer a bespoke service.
THERMOPLASTIC SHEET & REEL
Back in 1976, Stephen Webster and his father founded SWP to provide model makers and vacuum formers with a source of High Impact Polystyrene sheet (HIPS) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene sheet (ABS) in smaller quantities than manufacturers could produce. The range of products soon expanded to include Carbon Fibre Effect, Conductive, Fire Retardant, Mirrored and many more.
Since our inception over 45 years ago, we’ve added a wealth of new products such as ViPrint (polypropylene) and Staufen PVC for the stationery, graphic arts, print, and point of sale/point of purchase (POS/POP) sectors. For the POS/POP, confectionary, glazing and thermoforming sectors, our products also include PET and PETg, Polycarbonate (PC) and, APET Reels.
INVESTMENT
We’ve invested heavily in the latest cutting technologies to provide our customers with a bespoke cut to size service. This technology will benefit the very best suppliers in the industry with whom SWP are proud to work with and call ourselves a partner to. Most of our suppliers have worked with us for a very long time and produce high quality materials. SWP and their partners have forged strong relationships and we are continuously developing our product portfolio.
