Who Are Oadby Plastics?

Oadby Plastics is one of the UK’s leading independent suppliers and machinists of industrial plastics.

Founded in 1969, the company supplies engineering and fabrication plastics to businesses across sectors including manufacturing, construction, food production and engineering. Their range includes plastic sheets, rods and tubes as well as precision CNC-machined components.

With multiple UK locations and large warehousing and machining facilities, Oadby Plastics supports customers nationwide with both material supply and technical expertise.

As the business continued to grow, the website needed to better reflect the scale of the company and make it easier for customers to explore the product range.

About the Project

Oadby Plastics approached us to deliver a full website rebrand and rebuild. The existing site no longer reflected the professionalism expected of a £60m-turnover business. Product information was spread across the site and navigation made it harder for customers to quickly find the materials they needed.

The website was built on WordPress using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), giving the internal team a scalable content management system that can support future growth. Using client supplied visuals, we developed a new design that presents the business in a clearer and more structured way.

The product catalogue was reorganised so materials, services and industries are structured logically within the site. Products are now presented in a clearer, more visual structure, making the range easier to explore and understand. Targeted filtering was introduced to help visitors narrow down materials quickly based on key criteria.

We also developed a custom product finder tool that allows visitors to select specific requirements and identify the most suitable plastic for their application.

What Our Clients Say

“When we decided to redo our website, we called quite a number of web designers and were provided with numerous addresses of sites created by each designer. We found that ALT Agency had the most sites that we thought were innovative, creative and professional. After speaking a few times with ALT Agency we decided to go with them. It’s the best decision we’ve made in quite some time.

Joe Sapak

“There are two important considerations when looking for a designer, work quality and reliability. Alt Agency offer both in spades.

Ben Stephenson

“Craig is 100% on it and I mean on it, I can’t recommend him and ALT Agency highly enough.

Al Gosling

“I found Craig & ALT Agency through the UKBF forums and I can honestly say its been a pleasure to work with Craig & his team. The end result is exactly what I wanted and more. The site is for my landscaping company with the aim of drumming up more business around our local area as well as somewhere to showcase our previous work to potential clients.
