The facility was purchased from Carter Holt Harvey on October 27th, 2000. By virtue of common shareholders the new company is associated with Cinqplast Plastop South Africa, a leading manufacturer of plastic containers and closures in South Africa.

By association the Sydney facility has access to the technologies and capabilities enjoyed by Cinqplast Plastop South Africa.

The name of the South African holding company for the group is Master Plastics. The manufacturing operations trade under the names of Cinqplast Plastop (Pty) Limited, Plastop (Kwazulu) Natal (Pty) Limited and Cinqpet (Pty) Limited.

Plastop (Pty) Limited was founded in 1967 and has one of the most modern, well- equipped facilities, situated in Ekandustria, near Bronkhorstspruit. In 1996 a new state of the art plant was built in Durban, dedicated to Unilever. In 1998 Plastop merged with Cinqplast (Pty) Limited, a factory situated in Denver, Johannesburg and these merged operations operate under the name of Cinqplast Plastop (Pty) Limited. An ultra modern PET plant was custom built on the Denver site and the new equipment was commissioned by January 1999. The investment in the new plant, as a group over the past 2 years, has been R140m. The Master Plastics group is recognised as one of the major players in the industry.

The group has been awarded the prestigious, Make-it South Africa Manufacturing Excellence Award. The success of our business is largely attributable to our highly technical, state of the art equipment, quality systems, Cad/ Cam facilities, advanced IT systems along with our dynamic management team and competent staff.

In 1987 the group signed a license agreement with Wheaton, USA, to supply technical know-how and equipment.
