Founded originally in 1982 by Chris Elliott as 'Rainbow Tools Sheffield'. The business started by making garden tools.
However with the increase in oversea imports, the business had to be pointed in a different direction.
Chris was joined over the years by his three sons Simon, Tim and Andrew who together restructured the business and directed it's expertise into plastics recycling and more specifically the Rotational Moulding industry.
Andrew left the business early on to navigate his own successful career in hazardous waste recycling but has always been a guiding force in the background with a lifetime of expertise in the industry.
Simon retired in 2017, Chris in 2019 and for a short period of time Tim ran the business with the support from Andrew.
In 2021 Tim was joined by Andrew's daughter Tara and her Husband Dave, who has since taken over the role of Managing Director.
Dave has embraced the role with a clear vision and a commitment to driving the business forward. By fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation, he has empowered the team to implement strategic initiatives that align with the company’s long-term goals.
With improved operational efficiency the business is thriving, steadily progressing towards our ambitious environmental goals.
We are committed to implementing sustainable practices across all operations, which not only enhance our efficiency but also minimize our ecological footprint.
By embracing innovative technologies and fostering a culture of environmental responsibility among our team, we are making significant strides in reducing waste and conserving resources.
As we continue to grow, we remain focused on our mission to create a positive impact on the planet, ensuring that our success goes hand in hand with sustainability.
