• Tex Industrial Plastics

A Sandretto ‘MEGA TW’ 610 tonne injection moulding machine has recently been installed in the newly opened Derby factory of Tex Industrial Plastics. Supplied as a complete cell with hopper loader, Nepal S3 all-electric drive de-mould robot and indexing conveyor, the new machine is to be used primarily for producing parts for Heatrae Sadia’s ‘Megaflo’ domestic, unvented water heating system.

Tex Industrial Plastics employs what Managing Director Peter Stevenson describes as “a real partnership approach” with its major customers. Typical is Heatrae Sadia for which Tex has been moulding a range of parts for many years. Post-moulding work includes printing, ultrasonic welding, sub-assembly and packaging.

Part of the Tex Holdings plc group of companies which also includes Tex Plastics Products in Barnstaple, Tex Industrial Plastics made further extensions to its Derby factory earlier this year to accommodate an 11% business expansion.

The company has operated Sandretto injection machines for over 20 years; four years ago, Tex Derby took the opportunity of a move into an earlier plant extension to introduce cell production techniques when it installed Sandretto 270 tonne and 380 tonne Series 8 injection machines. Investment continued with a new Serie NOVE 125 tonne machine.
