Industry Challenges
 Making improved and sustainable profits
 Maintaining margins
 Winning new business
 Retaining existing business
The Background
Making sustainable profits in the Plastics & Rubber industry has become increasingly difficult.
Competition is intense with the inevitable pressure on margins. With the standardisation of raw
material prices, the ability of companies to differentiate themselves has become extremely tough.
This means that the ability to win and retain business comes down to service, efficiency, innovation
and the ability to add value to the customer relationship.
What We Do
 We specialise in working with Plastic & Rubber processing companies and their owners.
 We provide our clients with concrete guidance on how to improve performance and enhance
profitability.
 We help companies look at the business from a different and more profitable perspective.
Our Response
 We provide an entirely unbiased assessment of the business, its status and current direction. This
can also include an appraisal as to the company’s financial bench strength.
 We look at the business in a systematic way. Namely: people, manufacturing, technical and
commercial.
 We look at the company’s existing markets/applications and its relative strength within these.
 We assess the company’s capability to enter new markets and applications, including overseas by
way of export.
 We formulate and propose a new strategy for success. This can take the form of consolidation,
growth or eventual exit. It is your company so you decide.
 We continue to advise the client on a regular basis to ensure that the strategy is being followed
and operated correctly.
