Corporate Responsibility

As a plastic injection moulding company S.B.Weston Ltd. are aware of their responsibility regarding the impact of their activities on the following:

Environment

Consumers

  • Where required, client products are tested before production to meet legal safely requirements.
  • Weston Boxes are manufactured from acid free, food grade, polypropylene.

Employees

  • Regular inspections by the London Fire Brigade, electrical installation surveyors and government health and safety officers ensure the safety of our workplace.
  • All plant has safety guarding and emergency stop buttons which are tested regularly.

Local Communities

  • We work with Spelthorne council, segregating our waste for collection.
  • Our plant in Sunbury-on-Thames is located on an industrial estate in a non residential area.

Stakeholders

  • We constantly improve our manufacturing techniques and have recently increased efficiency by introducing:
  1. 24 hour production monday to friday reduces machine start/stop time. Heating on startup and purging on shut down can be expensive, wasteful processes and are so are minimised.
  2. Tooling improvements on many of our long running products, to reduce wall sections. Less material is now used in each Weston Box moulding.
  3. Multi cavity tooling increases the number of products produced in one machine cycle, reducing the machine hours needed to complete a job.
