Take a sneak peek at our manufacturing process which takes place at Excelsior Ltd.’s factory in Bury. Rooted in tradition and innovation, ensuring that every product meets the highest standards of quality and performance.
Our Heritage
Classic Showjumps is a trading arm of Excelsior Ltd, a family-run business established in 1902. Over the years, we’ve evolved from horse-drawn coal carts to becoming one of Europe’s leading manufacturers of equestrian products. Our 44,000 sq. foot facility in Bury, Lancashire, houses a variety of roto moulding machines. This allows us to produce high-quality products for trade and retail.
The Roto Moulding Process
Our products are made using a technique called rotational moulding. Although it sounds complex, this process involves placing polyethylene powder into a mould, which is then heated in an oven while rotating on two axes. As the mould heats up, the powder melts and evenly coats the inside, creating a hollow, seamless product with consistent wall thickness. Once cooled, the product is removed from the mould, resulting in durable, long-lasting items.
What are the advantages of using this material?
