Manufacturing
Over 50 Years Extrusion Experience
Our manufacturing facilities in Victoria, Queensland and Western Australia utilise advanced extrusion technology and a range of in-line production solutions.
Since 1970, Foster Plastics Industries has been committed to innovation and excellence which is reflected in our comprehensive range of manufacturing capabilities.
We offer flexible, rigid and co-extrusion processes and produce our products from a range of materials and colours. Inline processing (e.g. cutting, printing etc) and secondary operations (e.g. custom packaging etc) enable us to customise products as required.
We pride ourselves on making high-quality products tailored to meet the unique needs of our clients across a variety of different industries.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the manufacturing process take?
Lead times vary depending on the complexity of the project, but typically range from 10 to 15 working days.
What are the benefits of plastic extrusion over other methods?
Plastic extrusion offers a cost-effective way to produce continuous profiles with consistent cross-sections. It allows for greater flexibility in design, minimal waste, and the ability to use recyclable materials.
Can you handle both large and small production runs?
Yes, we can accommodate both small and large production runs, offering flexibility to meet the varying needs of our customers.
