Clear plastics group Plastech refurbs factory after Alplast move.

Clear plastic packaging maker Plastech has overhauled its Scottish facility after the Alplast business it acquired three years ago moved into the site.

Plastech bought Buckinghamshire-based Alplast in 2007 but moved the business's manufacturing to its own 4,000sqm facility in Glenrothes, Scotland at the end of last year.

Plastech has now completed a major refurbishment programme since the move in the first quarter of 2010.

The consolidated business can, Plastech said, provide clients with a one-stop-shop for the design and manufacture of clear plastic promotional packaging aimed at the retail sector.

Plastech managing director Tom Stirling said: "It made perfect sense to centralise the packaging operation at our headquarters, where we have a highly skilled staff and an excellent manufacturing and support infrastructure already in place."
