The Formaplex factory

Company History

The Formaplex story

Formaplex was started in July 2001. The culture instilled by the founders at this time, including meeting clients' demand for rapid project delivery and offering round-the-clock support, has underpinned the company's growth ever since.

Expertise and expansion

The next step for Formaplex came in 2003 when it began supplying injection-mould tooling to meet the needs of a growing number of automotive prototype and development projects from clients operating at the very top of their fields.

As demand for injection-mould tooling continued to rise and realising that commercial mould shops could not complete projects as quickly as clients demanded, Formaplex invested in its own injection-moulding machinery in 2004.

New headquarters

The company continued to grow and, in 2007, it moved into a brand new purpose-built facility in Hampshire, in the south of England.

Today, the highly skilled Formaplex workforce provides a comprehensive design-to-manufacture service to clients in the automotive, motorsport, military and aerospace industries who require composites and plastic components.
