Recycled Plastic Building Supplies for Durable and Eco-Friendly Solutions
Plasmar was established in 2004 as a division of Australian Composite Technology (ACT), pioneering innovative solutions for industrial plastic waste recycling. Our Somerton VIC facility marked the world's first large-scale reprocessing line for co-mingled plastics, later expanded with a Minto NSW production site. Through 18 years of dedicated research, we've developed a patented manufacturing process that transforms 100% recycled engineering-grade polymers into durable construction materials. Our products undergo rigorous CSIRO testing, guaranteeing over 50 years of service life while eliminating the need for chemical treatments required by traditional materials. We maintain strict quality control across our manufacturing processes, ensuring consistent product specifications that meet exacting industry standards. Our team combines polymer science expertise with practical engineering experience to continually improve our circular economy solutions.We provide comprehensive documentation including 'no plastics to landfill' certification and recycling destruction certificates for clients pursuing ISO14001 accreditation. Our commitment to environmental stewardship extends to offering National Packaging Covenant compliance assistance for corporate clients. With operations in two purpose-built Australian facilities, we process industrial plastic waste streams at commercial scales while maintaining material traceability. Our technical specialists work directly with clients to develop customised solutions for specific application requirements across multiple industries. Through continuous innovation, we've expanded our product range to include structural components that outperform conventional timber, concrete and steel alternatives.

Services
Fence Posts
Our recycled plastic fence posts offer superior durability in agricultural and industrial applications. Made from 100% recycled engineering polymers, they resist rot, pests and weathering without chemical treatments. Available in multiple dimensions for various fencing requirements.
Rail Systems
Durable plastic rail systems provide long-lasting fencing solutions for rural and commercial properties. These maintenance-free components eliminate splintering and warping issues associated with timber alternatives. Designed for easy installation using standard tools.
Bollards
High-impact plastic bollards offer permanent boundary definition and vehicle access control. Available in round and square profiles with optional safety features. Resistant to marine environments and chemical exposure without degradation.
Sleepers
Heavy-duty plastic sleepers provide structural support for fencing and landscaping applications. Their consistent dimensions ensure reliable installation performance. Immune to fungal attack and moisture-related dimensional changes affecting timber equivalents.
Pallets
Industrial-grade composite pallets withstand demanding transport and storage conditions. Manufactured from recycled polymers to maintain dimensional stability. Eliminate contamination risks from moisture or chemical treatments required by wooden alternatives.
Questions
What materials are Plasmar products made from?
Our products use 100% recycled engineering-grade polymers sourced from industrial waste streams. This includes plastics that would otherwise go to landfill.
How long do Plasmar products last?
CSIRO testing confirms our products maintain structural integrity for over 50 years under normal operating conditions without degradation.
Can Plasmar products be used in agricultural applications?
Yes, our materials are ideal for farming environments due to resistance to fungal attack, marine environments and livestock-related wear.
Are Plasmar products environmentally friendly?
Our manufacturing process diverts plastics from landfill while creating durable products that reduce demand for timber resources.
Do Plasmar products require special maintenance?
No chemical treatments or protective coatings are needed. Regular cleaning with standard equipment maintains product appearance and performance.
Can I get custom-sized products?
We offer custom manufacturing for bulk orders, including specific dimensions and colour requirements for large-scale projects.
