Our team are highly experienced and dedicated, offering a plastic injection moulding service that is truly world leading.

We operate two companies from our UK site, Pentagon Plastics Ltd and Pentagon Tooling Ltd and have traded in the sector since 1972. The companies complement each other operating as two supporting divisions in the plastics industry specifically in the sectors of plastic injection moulding and tool manufacture.
Pentagon Tooling is a centre of excellence for mould tool servicing, repair, modification, pre-production development and production mould tools.
Specialising in all forms of mould tool services, we provide extensive tooling services to our diverse customer base spanning a wide range of industry sectors. This compromises complex multi-cavity tooling for industries including medical, aviation, caps & closure and packaging markets amongst others.
Pentagon delivers comprehensive mould tool manufacture and supports bespoke in-house moulding for a range of customers. As well as an outsourced service to other plastic injection moulders.
The technical expertise in our plastics division enables us to provide a wealth of knowledge and experience to a diverse customer base spanning many industries. Our services include design for manufacture, development, tool trials, low to medium volume repeat production and post moulding operations. A wide range of injection mould tooling can be accommodated including basic development tools, single impression and family moulds through to multi-cavity. Tools are processed on a range of clean, efficient and well maintained electric, hybrid and hydraulic moulding machines.
Our post injection moulding services provide added value to customers and include finishing of parts, inserting, waxing and light assembly. Specialist services such as painting, coating and marking are subcontracted to approved suppliers.

Injection moulding is the process of taking thermoplastic granules and reforming them to a specific shape, producing a component to meet a specific application. To do so we utilise two main pieces of equipment - an injection moulding machine and a mould tool.
Thermoplastic granules are loaded into a feeding hopper. They are then heated into a molten form and injected into the temperature-controlled mould tool in order to set the plastic to the required shape.
Furthermore, there are different types of thermoplastics and variations in the technical process that allow us to fulfil a wide range of product requirements. This includes the size of the press and the configuration of the mould tool.
At Pentagon, we have successfully manufactured many hundreds of parts including non-invasive medical, aircraft seating components and electrical housings. Our expertise allows us to produce components across a range of industries and product requirements.
Pentagon is unique in that, unlike UK competitors, we provide mould tooling in-house from our facilities in Horsham, West Sussex. Not outsourcing production means we have direct on-site control over every element of a project.
We have been trading in the industry since 1972 and under the Pentagon Name since 1979. Our many years of experience mean we understand the challenges, methods and have the know-how to take on and deliver any project. Whilst we have years of experience, we are also highly focused on keeping up to date on the latest tools and manufacturing methods.
We have worked on projects across a vast array of sectors over the years and our experience allows us to take on projects in new sectors with ease.
Here are just a few common sectors we work in:
- Medical non-invasive products
- Medical devices
- Aviation and aerospace
- Security, sensor and control
- Construction and electrical
