So you’ve got an idea for a new plastic product but you’re not sure where to start and how to move from design to manufacture? Well, that’s where Heyside Group can help with trade moulding solutions. Designing a custom moulded product can feel complex, especially if it’s your first time developing a component for a specialist application. This step-by-step guide walks you through the full process, from concept and material selection to tooling and testing, to help you understand how manufacturers like Heyside turn ideas into production-ready, moulded parts.

Heyside Group has worked with and supported a range of businesses through our bespoke plastic production, including both Private Labels and OEMs. Whether you require established, finished products or components to integrate into wider systems, we can provide the best solution for your requirements. We currently supply clients with a number of products, such as traffic cones, chambers, fence blocks and sign bases, each developed through an initial consultation.
Clients can approach us with a brief, objective or problem and our expert team work to design, prototype and produce the most effective solution. This is central to how we operate, meaning we are not just a supplier, but a long-term partner for OEMs and Private Label brands.

We support our partners through products that are bespoke to their specific requirements, whether they’re seeking a component for their system or a complete product. We can either work to existing drawings and specifications or provide consultative design support for our clients, customising our injection moulding tooling to your needs. Our 3D modelling, product and material testing and prototyping capabilities also mean that you receive a durable solution that’s ready for real world applications.
Heyside Group also provide customisation options, with products spray painted and embossed to our partners’ specifications.

With CSR and sustainability also being growing considerations for UK businesses, it’s important that your supply chain also operates cleanly. That’s why everything that we produce is made in the UK from recycled materials. Taking scrap PVC such as flooring and wiring, that would otherwise be headed for landfill, we shred and injection mould this waste, so that it’s given a new lease of life. Our circular approach also means that any faulty products, or those at their end of life, can be reused to create new products for our partners.
Working with Heyside Group means you’re working with a UK manufacturer, who operates cleanly and sustainably with a commitment to reducing plastic waste. Increase supply chain transparency and sustainability credentials through choosing Heyside.

In our 40,000sqft Oldham manufacturing hub, we produce all of our recycled plastic products. Our equipment, including 4 PRESMA injection moulding machines, allow us to produce quality products consistently. These automated tools and large, modern manufacturing space also mean that we have to room to grow, alongside our partners providing scalable solutions for any line of products.
And most importantly, when working with OEMs and Private Label brands, we are a true partner. Through communication, collaboration and agility, we make sure that your requirements are met, and that we combine manufacturing excellence with personalised expertise and advise.
