About

Nearly a century ago, the seeds of UB Plastics (named after Uncle Bill) were sown in Burton.

Our humble beginnings can be traced back to crafting bungs and stoppers for traditional wooden beer barrels. From these foundational roots, we’ve grown to become a leading name in the injection plastic moulding industry, working with incredible brands around the world.

Company

Situated on a sprawling 1.7-acre site in the heart of Burton, UB Plastics is a formidable player in the specialist plastic moulding industry. Our state-of-the-art machinery can output 100 million parts a year ranging from a precise 3mm to an expansive 400mm.

35 skilled employees help us keep 23 product lines working, handling work from 30t to 220t.

Heritage

Throughout our storied history, UB Plastics has always been at the forefront of technological advancements. 

We have not only witnessed the evolution of injection plastic moulding and in-mould labelling but have also been active participants and innovators. Embracing cutting-edge technologies has been a cornerstone of our success, enabling us to deliver unparalleled quality and precision. 

Examples have been introducing 8 cavity in-mould labelling cells and 12 in-mould labelling cells.

UK manufacturing

Our commitment to quality is unwavering, and that starts with sourcing the finest raw materials. We are long-term partners with the UK’s most reputable suppliers, including Distrupol, Resinex, and Plastribution.

This not only ensures the quality, reliability, and sustainability of our supply, it also strengthens the UK’s manufacturing ecosystem.
