Article VOKA – Attractive material

— 28/03/2025

“Fiberglass-reinforced polyester (composite material) or plastic, that’s what this little cart is made of, which you undoubtedly know from amusement parks. The material is ideal for this purpose: it’s lightweight, corrosion-resistant, offers many design possibilities, and you can produce parts in color. ACL Polyester from Moorsele also uses polyester for the chemical and food industries, for sanitary equipment, for medical devices, etc. The company handles design, produces a model, creates a mold, and develops a prototype to ultimately make the molded parts, in series of one to five hundred units. Photographer STEFAAN ACHTERGAEL features a West Flemish product in every edition that caught our attention.”
