We exist because industry demands that complex projects which involve thermoplastics for the transportation, storage, processing and scrubbing of chemicals require highly skilled specialists.
Whether you bring us in at the consultancy stage, or bring us on board later in the project as specialist contractors, our team remains focused on our mission:
To ensure the safety of our end users and maximise the quality, longevity and efficiency of their processes by designing, fabricating and installing leading edge equipment at every site.
SCPS Group recognises that there are only a limited number of specialists in the UK capable of dealing with those projects on a turnkey basis and who have:
- Specialist knowledge and experience of complex thermoplastic projects
- Sufficient capacity (people, plant, place) to deliver
- Compliance with SHEQ requirements
- Knowledge of critical standards.
The Safety-Critical Plastics Solutions Group includes long-established thermoplastics specialists, giving us unrivalled geographic spread across the UK as well as depth of technical and hands-on experience:
- Industrial Engineering Plastics Limited
- Roperhurst Limited
- Marcol Fabrications (Plastics) Limited
- Plastratum Limited
- Red 14 Plastics Limited
Each group company stands on its own with a comprehensive list of blue chip clients established over many years.
The Group’s current and prior management team has been at the forefront of the development of standards with HVCA (now BESA).

- Bob Lane (former director, Roperhurst) was Chairman of the UK ductwork group which published the revision to DW144, the UK Specification for Sheet Metal Ductwork, in 2013
