Plastic and Acrylic has now been part of my DNA for 3 generations. I joined the business in 1989 and I love what I do and love that everyday, I am faced with a different challenges. Sometimes it feels like I am reinventing the wheel everyday as yesterday’s solution is often not today’s solution. I love the challenges that my clients entrust me with to solve and meeting different people from a wide range of different disciplines.
Charles has been working with acrylic since the late 1950’s. Always ready to embrace change, there is no chance of moss growing under his chair. He has steered the company through periods of plenty and periods of drought, a visionary in his field and has never shied away from trying a new technique or coming up with a new way to solve a problem.

Our companys' ethos
To be the best at what we do everyday. To be able to honestly say that we did the best we could, regardless of the outcome. Always remember that we are here only because our clients allow us to be. Forget that important fact and we might as well pack up and go home.
We have produced some of the largest acrylic and polycarbonate fabrications ever made and currently hold the world record for the largest beer bottle ever fabricated in acrylic. We supplied a huge 4 section water pressure unit to Stuttgart University for a UK contractor and also work extensively with retail fit out companies in hotels and retail environments. We have 3m+ x 2m+ ovens which are considerably larger than most other fabricators. This means we can drape form larger sheets, up to 50mm thick. We blow the largest acrylic Teedy™ domes available which are up to 2200mm diameter. We have a huge range of acrylic domes in stock, which are up to 1800mm in diameter and ready for dispatch within 24 hours. When it comes to acrylic fabrication, we won’t be beaten – we are proud to be the UK’s premier acrylic fabrication specialists, with decades of experience working with Perspex fabrication and acrylic forming under our belt.
Acrylic fabrication and Perspex fabrication aren’t our only strengths, either – at Talbot Designs we are able to vacuum-form acrylic, fabricate strong polycarbonate domes, and perform precise CNC machining to create whatever you want. From giant bottles and jars to acrylic domes and retail centrepieces, Talbot Designs has the skill and experience to create the piece that your project needs!
Our acrylic manufacturing and Perspex fabrication skills are augmented by top-of-the range acrylic fabrication techniques and equipment, including our very large ovens, dome blowers and drape-formers, giving us the ability to work to whatever specifications you may have. Whatever the project, just give us a call – if it can be made with acrylic fabrication, there is a good chance we’ve done something like that before and can help you out!
