Thinking plastic – with a sting in the tail.

One of the incredible things about plastic is that there are practically no limits to its application. Thanks to Vespula vulgaris, today’s tale from Sinclair & Rush has a sting in it.


Vespula vulgaris – the common wasp and Vespula germanica – the German wasp are the two noisy blighters that plague our summer picnics and disturb an al fresco beer. Some leap about, hands waving in the air screaming in fear and succeeding only in antagonising the yellow and black striped peril. Others quietly lure the critters into improvised wasp traps of upturned beer baited empties and ashtrays.


But for Groveline Products Limited, the solution is defined and permanent.

Their product – Wasp Go Go does exactly what it says on the appropriately yellow and black striped box. The powder kills the wasps and the delivery apparatus carries it safely to penetrate the nest, delivering the solution directly to the source.

Sinclair & Rush contribute in two ways. We supply the plugs to protect the extension pipes so that, once removed, the pipes fit together precisely to deliver the powder right onto the nest. For obvious reasons, the further away the operator is able to stand, the less furrowed might be his / her brow at the time of application.


Also, because of our ability to mix, dip mould and deliver a vast range of shapes, sizes and colours, Groveline can colour code the caps on different powder capsules. Coloured sleeves also denote one type of pipe over another (above). The operator follows the colour code to fit the appropriate capsule to the correct extension pipe – you can see this in action in the clip below:


Our experience as manufacturers and suppliers of plastic caps, plugs, sleeves and all manner of masking products is vast and global. Tooling for an extensive range of dip moulded products is standard and held in stock. Custom dip moulding takes this further, enabling Sinclair & Rush to customise moulds to deliver bespoke solutions, whatever the problem.

If you are not sure what you need then please, just ask.

We have been at the forefront of research and development, evolving the plastics industry with expertise around the world. If we can’t create a solution, tested and costed to meet the brief – then, frankly, it’s unlikely that anyone can. Why not put us to the test.

Think Plastic ~ we certainly do.

We work with manufacturing companies in the UK & Europe, who have problems protecting or finishing their products. We manufacture and supply solutions for this through a wide variety of plastic mouldings, caps, plugs and sleeves, which means they... or indeed you.... reduce the risk of damage or contamination, so your customers receive a top quality product every time.
