CASE STUDY: UK - Prima Plastics & Associates Ltd

 

Moulding the future

 

Prima Plastics & Associates Ltd, based in Bagshot, Surrey, has over 40 years' experience in glass-fibre moulding to all industries. As specialists in the manufacture of a complete range of non-metallic rigid sectional buildings, which are used for housing plant, electrical, computers and other sensitive technical apparatus, they offer a complete service from tooling to end product and can create and produce to customers' specifications.

In conjunction with Pidgeon Associates, Prima Plastics also offers a full design and development service. Prima assists engineers and industry design departments to mould, create and produce the products they require as economically as possible, often to short lead times.

The company's global client base includes the aviation, civil engineering, defence, electric, gas, oil and water industries and ranges from the individual to blue chip organisations.

Phil Keith, Managing Director said that they initially sought ISO 9001:2000 because of customer demand. "It was a pre-requisite that we had ISO certification. In our line of business, it has become mandatory for suppliers to demonstrate that that they operate to a recognised standard. Not only does it instil confidence into existing customers, but is a useful tool for attracting new business. We hope that this added credibility will translate into future revenue."

Prior to embarking on the certification process, they did experience some initial concerns about the amount of time and paperwork involved, but IMSM guided them seamlessly through each procedure without adversely affecting the day-to-day running of the business.

Phil concluded by saying that they are delighted with IMSM's service and would happily recommend them to other businesses.
