Plastic Injection Moulding Services

Nordell provides precision plastic injection moulding services for engineers, designers, and manufacturers who need reliable UK production, technical expertise, and repeatable quality at scale.

From our 40,000 sq ft facility in Worthing, West Sussex, we support manufacturers across Sussex, Hampshire, Surrey, London, the wider UK, and international markets.

Whether you’re developing a new product, refining tooling, or scaling production, our team works closely with yours to deliver consistent, high-performance moulded components.

Our moulding operations run within a cleaner, more controlled production environment than conventional mould shops, helping improve cosmetic quality, reduce contamination, and support reliable technical performance across every component we produce.

Benefits of Plastic Injection Moulding

  • Design FlexibilityComplex geometries and material options enable smarter product innovation.
  • Precision at ScaleRepeatable, high-accuracy moulding from prototype to full-volume production.
  • Controlled MouldingReduced contamination for better cosmetic and technical performance.

Injection Moulding Capabilities and Technical Expertise

Nordell operates more than 30 injection moulding presses ranging from 25 to 380 tonnes, producing components from a few grams to over a kilogram with repeatable precision.

Automation, robotics, and in-line inspection systems support consistent quality, traceability, and reliable production performance across every batch.

Our engineers work closely with customers from concept development through to full-scale manufacture, supporting tooling optimisation, Design for Manufacture (DFM), material selection, and process validation.

For projects requiring enhanced environmental control, Nordell provides White Room moulding for cosmetic, optical, and technically sensitive components and ISO Class 7 Cleanroom moulding for regulated or contamination-critical applications

This tiered approach allows us to match production environments precisely to your technical and commercial requirements.

Our engineering team helps determine the most commercially and technically appropriate solution for your project.

Choosing the Right Production Environment

  • Controlled Moulding as StandardOur standard moulding environment operates under cleaner, more disciplined conditions than conventional mould shops, helping improve consistency, surface finish, and part reliability.
  • White Room MouldingDesigned for visually critical, optical, and contamination-sensitive components where enhanced environmental control supports cosmetic quality and technical performance.
  • ISO Class 7 Cleanroom MouldingFor regulated or contamination-critical applications requiring certified environmental control and tightly managed production conditions.

What Our Plastic Injection Moulding Services Enable

Nordell’s plastic injection moulding services are built around practical production outcomes: consistent quality, scalable capacity, efficient manufacturing, and engineering support from design through to delivery.

Our controlled moulding environment also supports improved clarity, reduced inclusions, and better repeatability for cosmetic, optical, and technical components.

Mass Produced Parts

Scalable Production

Automation, flexible capacity, and round-the-clock production help customers move from new product launch to established production with confidence.

Efficient Manufacturing

With tooling, moulding, assembly, and finishing under one roof, Nordell helps reduce lead times, simplify supply chains, and maintain consistent quality across production runs.

Design and Engineering Support

Our engineers work directly with your team to refine part geometry, material selection, and tooling strategy. DFM input and simulation help improve manufacturability, performance, and cost efficiency.

Responsible Manufacturing

Energy-efficient presses, solar power, and support for recycled and bio-based materials help customers reduce environmental impact without compromising performance or reliability.

Injection Moulding Materials and Sustainable Manufacturing

Material selection has a direct impact on strength, finish, durability, cost, and environmental performance.

Nordell’s engineers provide practical guidance on polymer selection, helping customers choose materials that meet mechanical, cosmetic, regulatory, and sustainability requirements.

Every batch is managed through ISO-accredited quality systems, supporting reliability, traceability, and consistent production performance.

We process a wide range of thermoplastics, including:

Commodity plastics such as PP, PE, and PS for general purpose components

Engineering thermoplastics including ABS, PA, PC, and POM for strength, stability, and repeatability

High-performance polymers such as PEEK, Ultem (PEI), and PPS for demanding applications

Bio-based and recycled materials for projects where lower-impact production is a priority

Industries we support

Nordell partners with OEMs, innovators, and production teams across diverse sectors, helping each achieve faster development, tighter tolerances, and long-term reliability.

Scalable production

Rapid setup and automation help you increase output without adding complexity. Our round-the-clock production and flexible capacity make it easy to launch new products or scale established lines as demand grows.

Lean manufacturing

With tooling, moulding and assembly all under one roof, Nordell streamlines production workflows.

This integration shortens lead times, reduces waste, and delivers predictable quality across every batch.

Design collaboration

Our engineers work directly with your team to refine part geometry, material selection, and tooling strategy. Through DFM analysis and simulation, we help you achieve smarter, more manufacturable designs that perform reliably in use.

Responsible manufacturing

Powered by 800 solar panels and energy-efficient Euromap-rated presses, Nordell minimises waste and carbon impact.

We also support bio-based and recycled materials for customers seeking lower-carbon, sustainable production.

Our injection moulding process

A controlled six-stage journey from design and material planning through to inspection and release.

Design & Material Planning

Optimising parts for manufacturability

We start by reviewing CAD data, optimising wall thickness, gating, and flow.
Polymer selection and simulation ensure your design is functional and mouldable.

Tooling & Setup

Precision alignment for accuracy

Precision tooling is aligned and clamped in the press
Servo-controlled systems apply balanced force to protect the mould and guarantee dimensional accuracy.

Injection & Cavity Fill

Controlled flow for complete moulding

Molten plastic is injected under controlled pressure to fill every detail.
Sensors track temperature and pressure to achieve complete, repeatable parts.

Packing & Holding

Stabilising dimensions and surface finish

Continued pressure compensates for shrinkage, improving surface finish and dimensional stability while preventing sink marks or voids.

Cooling & Solidification

Consistent cooling for reliable results

Advanced cooling channels and thermal management optimise cycle time and part integrity. Uniform cooling prevents warpage and ensures consistency.

Ejection & Inspection

Quality assured in every cycle

Once solidified, components are ejected and undergo in-process inspection for accuracy, finish, and compliance, ensuring every part meets specification.
