Industry: <\/strong>Ventilation<\/p>\n

Service:<\/strong>\u00a0 Complete end-to-end manufacturing: \u00a0Design for manufacture, mould tool design & manufacture and plastic injection moulding.<\/p>\n

Our Client:<\/strong> Verplas, established in 1986, is one of the UK\u2019s leading ventilation ducting manufacturers. They have led the way within the domestic ventilation market for nearly 30 years.<\/p>\n

Our Mission:<\/strong> Verplas needed a suite of 15 couplings, both circular and rectangular, to fit a variety of duct joints and eliminate the need for sealant and tape to prevent air leakage within these ducting systems. With a tight turnaround time for all 15 mouldings, design adjustments required throughout the process to optimise function, and tooling and high-volume mouldings, this was an ambitious project.<\/p>\n

BEC Solution:<\/strong> Through our long-standing relationship with Verplas and the strong communication between their design & engineering teams and our tooling and moulding departments, we were able to work collaboratively to make design tweaks to improve manufacturing and the finished product on an incredibly tight timescale.<\/p>\n

The injection mouldings produced by BEC complimented Verplas\u2019 in-house extrusion process to produce a suite of 15 easy-install couplings. Using polystyrene for these couplings proved to be cost-efficient, durable and lightweight as well as minimising heat loss and leakage.<\/p>\n

As a UK manufacturer, Verplas were able to have far more control over the quality of mouldings with the ability to view first-off samples in the BEC factory. In addition, delivery times, transportation costs and supply chain issues were greatly reduced in comparison to overseas manufacturers.<\/p>\n

Result:<\/strong> Within just a few short months, our tooling department designed and manufactured 15 fully automatic mould tools of various sizes and shapes to exact specifications to fit Verplas\u2019 range of ducting.<\/p>\n

This tooling was retained for manufacturing in our mould shop to injection mould a high-volume of each design. After initial moulding runs and the commercial success of the couplings, we continue to manufacture them in high volume when required- this is made by possible by BEC and Verplas\u2019 communicative relationship and agile manner of working.<\/p>\n

The sealing ability of the coupling has been independently tested by the Building Research Establishment, Test Report No. 285430.<\/em><\/p>\n
