Show dignitary Prince Andrew at Bolton's stand.

Bolton Rubber and Silicone, part of a new £10 million ($18.27) million rubber group of companies based in the north west of England, says it has had a highly successful debut at the Big 5 show.

One of the world’s leading rubber-polymer manufacturers, the company proactively satisfies the rubber requirements of construction and high-tech automotive industries around the world, and was delighted to be flooded with enquiries throughout the five days of the Dubai show.
Peter Kenyon, divisional technical manager of Bolton Rubber and Silicone says: “We have been staggered with the enquiries we have received from exhibiting at the Big 5. There was a constant stream of visitors to our stand and many enquiries were of an extremely high quality. As a group we are committed to competing globally and the feedback received from the show has confirmed our total commitment to the global market. We look forward to exhibiting again next year.”
Established 25 years ago, Bolton Rubber and Silicone has an enviable depth of knowledge in extruded and vulcanised jointed gaskets for the windows and curtain wall markets globally, and has successfully completed a huge range of high profile projects in ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), silicone and neoprene.
Involved with hundreds of projects, from the smallest rubber product to the largest curtain-walling requirement, the company says that many of its enquiries come through recommendation because of the speed and accuracy with which it has been manufacturing, and its ability to resolve client requirements swiftly, effectively and within the designated time.
The company was recently acquired by The Phoenix Medical Group, one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of ground-breaking industrial-based rubber products. Phoenix has implemented an outstanding strategic diversification and expansion programme and has acquired companion rubber-polymer based sports, leisure and industrial businesses to expand its empire and create the beginnings of an impressive manufacturing conglomerate.
