Great Central Plastics Expands into Second Facility

Great Central Plastics has expanded our operations with the opening of a dedicated 1,200 sq ft assembly facility, located alongside our main Woodford Halse site. The new space has been fitted out to provide a clean, controlled environment for the post-moulding operations that sit outside our core mould shop, giving these processes the dedicated focus and space they deserve.

The facility brings together a range of services under one roof, including pad printing, hot tip foiling, part assembly, and bespoke packing requirements. By housing these operations separately, we can maintain tighter quality control at every stage of the process and offer our customers a more complete, end-to-end service without the need to bring in third parties.

The expansion marks an important milestone in our continued growth journey, with significant investment in new injection moulding machinery, automation and material handling systems to follow in the coming months. Increased demand for our eco-friendly moulding work, alongside new projects and growth within existing projects, has created a need for larger, more modernised moulding machinery as our main factory has begun to operate 24 hours per day to reach capacity.

The new second facility, which houses our post-moulding work, also enables further expansion within the main mould shop as our family-run injection moulding business expands across two sites for the first time in its 25+ year history.
