Supporting Birmingham’s Electronics Sector
As Birmingham cements its role as a regional tech hub — home to electronics manufacturers, sensor developers, and smart city initiatives — the demand for reliable, scalable plastic components is on the rise.
Whether you’re producing rugged outdoor sensor housings, PCB mounts, or enclosures for home automation systems, plastic injection moulding offers the perfect balance of protection, precision, and cost-effectiveness. At Stephens Plastic Mouldings, we help electronics and infrastructure manufacturers in the UK and Birmingham build better, smarter products — faster.
Why Use Injection Moulding for Electronics Components?
Excellent Design Flexibility
From multi-part enclosures to snap-fit clips, injection moulding allows complex features and functional detailing without secondary processing.
High Dimensional Accuracy
PCB alignment tabs, connector guides, and snap-fit latches must be precise. Injection moulding delivers consistent tolerances, even at scale.
Strong Yet Lightweight
Materials like ABS, polycarbonate and PC/ABS provide strength, impact resistance, and UL-rated fire safety in compact forms.
Environmental Protection
When combined with gaskets and overmoulded seals, injection moulded housings offer water and dust resistance — perfect for smart city or IoT installations.

FAQs – Plastic Injection Moulding for Electronics
Q: Can you help me adapt a 3D-printed enclosure into a moulded part?
Yes. We can redesign or directly convert your prototype to a mouldable format with guidance on draft angles, wall thickness and undercuts.
Q: What materials work best for outdoor smart devices?
We recommend UV-stabilised ABS or polycarbonate for weather resistance. We can also advise on overmoulded seals for extra protection.
Q: Do you mould clear plastic covers or light lenses?
Yes. We mould clear and translucent parts in polycarbonate and acrylic for display windows and status lights.
Q: Can you add part numbers or logos?
Absolutely. We offer pad printing, laser marking, and engraving during or after moulding.
