In conjunction with their suppliers, Advanced Polymers offers advice on material selection, mould design, processing and product analysis. We are an owner-managed business where the Executive Team are all Directors and Shareholders.

All our products are imported from large quality polymer producers overseas. We have long relationships with these suppliers who are all committed to us and the SA market. We have warehouses in Johannesburg, Durban and Capetown and can deliver promptly to customers throughout SA

At Advanced Polymers we believe in delivering the best customer experience in the markets we serve and we are very proud of the excellent standard of service that we are able to offer. We have the best Technical Team in the Engineering Polymer industry in SA backed up with over 80 years of combined practical experience. We offer so much more than just delivery of our various materials technical support, material identification, trouble-shooting and expert advice on the right material and grade for the job are also available - all at no extra cost!

We are committed to our customers - we believe that no other polymer distributor in South Africa can match our level of technical expertise and level of commitment to our customers. Our clients are able to benefit from the immense technical capability of our team and excellent links with our industry partners.

On a new project or where you are not satisfied with the performance of your existing polymer and / or supplier we offer the following:

Full analysis of your needs, expectations, test methods and pricing
We will prepare a proposal detailing the process going forward
Once we get a commitment to use our material on condition we meet the agreed performance and price targets we will:

airfreight samples
supervise machine trials
make recommendations on machine sizing and setting
make recommendations on mould design changes
test sample locally and internationally in terms os stress and mould performance
use the expertise of our international test centres
mould flow analysis
review results from your product trials
adjust polymer grade where necessary
work with the modular and end customer until the product has achieved the target performance levels

In most cases we would work with both the moulder and end customer for at least a 6 month period. We provide regular written feedback and reports. On condition that the polymer grade is purchased from us, all of these services are provided at no extra cost, and in all of our past case histories our pricing has been more competitive in achieving quality and cost improvement for our customers.
