For
many years these items have been the backbone
of the concrete pre-casters profitability. Seen
at all outdoor markets and fairs they have a wide
appeal and are a source of considerable profits
for small local area manufacturers. Large manufacturers
have found it difficult to break into this market
apart from a range of basic stock items due to
the high cost of transport. Local home based suppliers
have little or no competition and a well trafficked
street or highway display can usually guarantee
ready sales.
There is a considerable amount of copyright free
material around for duplication usually using
latex rubber for the mould and a fiberglass back-up
mould to support the shape of the larger items
when being cast into the mould. Smaller items
do not need a back-up mould and we can supply
instructions with the latex for the manufacture
of this type of mould.
