Reduce Carbon Footprint

Reduced waste, prioritise non-toxic materials, and finding circular solutions.

Virtual and Physical Twins

Every prop has a digital and physical model for virtual reality productions.

Accurate Reproducability

Highly repeatable manufacture technology enables highly accurate creations.

If you've been tasked to find sustainable props you've probably found:

Lead times are too long
The prices aren't reasonable
Your options are limited
The sustainable aspect is speculative

Good news, there is a better way!

Sourcing Sustainable Props Shouldn't be Like Trying to Find a Thimble in a Junkyard.

We Do it Differently

We make props here in the UK, using materials that are more sustainable, manufacture methods that are less carbon consuming, and cutting edge technologies to reduce waste. Through projects funded by Media Cymru we have also begun the development of recycling and degradation, allowing us to take massive steps towards our ultimate goal of creating a circular model.

Unique Creations

If you are looking for something new or unique then get in touch to discuss! By combining Engineering expertise with experienced prop makers we are able to tackle difficult challenges and produce high quality results.
