Ask any manufacturer what timber, metals, glass and concrete are useful for and he'll give you a ready answer. Ask the same question about Plastics and it's ten to one that he'll murmur something like “Plastics are made from milk (or something) and they're quite useful for moulding bottle tops, combs and other knick-knacks.” |
There are thousands of articles, large or small, delicate or strong, useful or decorative, simple or complicated, cheap or expensive, plain or coloured, that can be made, and made better, from these materials, yet many manufacturers are not alive to it. During wartime B.I.P. are doing something more than continuing with production, research and their policy of pointing the way - they offer a service to any manufacturer who, while working all-out for the war, is yet concerned about his post-war business. That service hinges on a knowledge of mouldings and mould stuffs which cannot be bettered by any county in the world. |
