It’s long time ago since I finished my PhD in Materials Science, my subject was high temperature materials yet my office was not in the upper rooms with the furnaces and laser flash equipment but in the basement with the polymer engineers and the extruders and that weird persistent smell of all things rubbery.
So it was with a feeling of nostalgia that I was once again amid the extruders and waterbaths at Nufox to photograph their people, processes and products for their imminent website redesign.
Nufox make an amazing range of polymer products from small medical devices, penny-farthing tyres (the world’s only remaining manufacturer), forklift bumpers, gas storage balloons, aircraft lifting bags, banana boats, hypothermia bags, rescue sleds and many, many bespoke hoses which allow vintage vehicles to stay on the road. If you’ve ever been trapped by the closing doors of a London underground train it was probably a Nufox seal that saved your person.
