UNDER-RENOVATION please check back after 30th April 2017

Vulpine Vortex is continuing the century old plastics business but with an ardor, a vehemence and a passion far greater than the entrepreneurs of yore. From the old days that acquisitively-driven humans learned of plastics, they have been incessantly taking long strides in the world of plastics striving to make a product par excellence, which is cheaper, stronger, more durable, reusable, more resistant to weather, heat, cold etc., than any that have existed . Time bears testimony to the fact that the discovery of plastics has been a crucial turning point in history. Who would have thought that organic products such as cellulose, coal, natural gas, salt and, of course, crude oil would give us something so indispensable, plastics! The development of plastics has evolved from the use of natural plastic materials (e.g., chewing gum, shellac) to the use of chemically modified, natural materials (e.g., natural rubber, nitrocellulose, collagen, galalite) and finally to completely synthetic molecules (e.g., bakelite, epoxy, polyvinyl chloride). Early plastics were bio-derived materials such as egg and blood proteins, which are organic polymers. As the manufacture of plastic raw materials and their variety grew, so did the various methods of processing these plastics. There are many, but we will limit ourselves to what we are engaged in, i.e., injection moulding, blow moulding and extrusion moulding. Molding or moulding is the process of manufacturing by shaping liquid or pliable raw material using a rigid frame called a mold or mould. A mold or mould is a hollowed-out block that is filled with a liquid or pliable material such as plastic, glass, metal, or ceramic raw material. Blow molding is a manufacturing process by which hollow plastic parts are formed. The process comes from the idea of glass blowing. Injection moulding is a manufacturing process for producing parts by injecting material into a mould. Extrusion is a process used to create objects of a fixed cross-sectional profile. A material is pushed through a die of the desired cross-section. We deal in injection and blow moulds / molds. Typical moulds are constructed from hardened steel, pre-hardened steel, aluminium, and/or beryllium-copper alloy. The choice of material to build a mould from is primarily one of economics; in general, steel moulds cost more to construct, but their longer lifespan will offset the higher initial cost over a higher number of parts made before wearing out.

We Tailor Metal

Our moulds and wire handles are made
with your specific needs
addressed, so long as technically possible.

Time Bound

While we understand the essence of time
and take measures to honour our deadlines
delays due to force majeure are inevitable

Speed with Precision

We face this looming challenge over and over,
how to deliver high quality at a high speed
while putting a rein on the costs.

The word ‘plastic’ comes from the Greek plastikos, meaning ‘capable of being shaped and moulded.

The world's first fully synthetic plastic was bakelite, invented in New York in 1907 by Leo Baekeland who coined the term 'plastics'!
Packaging beverages in PET plastic rather than glass or metal is estimated to save 52% in transportation energy!
It took DuPont twelve years and US$27 million to refine nylon, and to synthesize and develop the industrial processes for bulk manufacture!
Parkesine is considered the first man-made plastic. The plastic material was patented by Alexander Parkes, In Birmingham, UK in 1856!
‘Plastic explosives’ were first referred to in 1907 and ‘plastic bag’ arrived in 1941.
Plastic bags and other plastic garbage thrown into the ocean kill as many as 1,000,000 sea creatures a year! Ever heard of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch? It's twice the size of Texas and is floating somewhere between San Francisco and Hawaii. It's also 80 percent plastic, and weighs in at 3.5 million tons.
At least 90 percent of the price of a bottle of water is for things other than the water itself, like bottling, packaging, shipping and marketing.
The plastics industry uses as much oil as the aviation sector.
Plastics use is expected to quadruple by 2050 .
