Tufnol is the byword for quality in laminated plastics and resin based materials for engineering applications. It was invented here in the UK and its development to meet modern engineering demands continues to keep it abreast of 21st century technology.

TUFNOL is a proprietary brand of non-metallic material used to make engineering components for a wide range of uses. This type of material is known as 'synthetic resin bonded laminated plastic', and is made from layers of paper, cotton cloth or woven glass fibre cloth, dipped in resin, then compressed and bonded together in a hot press. It is a strong, hard material, made in a number of different grades with varying properties and uses.
