What RESIN HANDLING SERVICES LIMITED does

Resin Handling Services Limited is a privately-held UK industrial services company headquartered at Wincham Industrial Estate, Northwich, Cheshire. The company specializes in the handling, storage, and processing of resins, polymers, and plastic raw materials — including granules, powders, and bulk materials — for manufacturers in the plastics and chemical sectors. Its service portfolio spans unloading of distressed loads and containers, blending of plastic granules, drying of polymers, decanting from 25kg bags and bulk bags into bulk tankers, silo evacuations, repacking into multiple formats, and short- and long-term storage, complemented by its own transport fleet of tankers and trailers.

The company operates a single integrated facility comprising 9 silos, modern warehouses, weigh-bridge infrastructure, mobile ramps, and a CCTV-secured site located in close proximity to major UK motorway links. It holds BS EN ISO 9001:2015 accreditation and is GDPR-compliant.

The five-employee organization is managed by directors with over 90 years of combined raw material handling experience, and the business is privately held with no institutional investors, no funding history, and no publicly disclosed financials.

Broad incumbents

• Brenntag: Brenntag is the world's largest chemical distribution company, offering plastics and polymer distribution alongside bulk storage, blending, and repacking services as part of a much broader specialty and industrial chemicals portfolio. Comparable capability set to RHS but at global scale and as one offering among many.
• Azelis: Azelis is a global specialty chemicals and ingredients distributor providing warehousing, blending, and repacking services, including for polymer-adjacent materials. Comparable handling capabilities to RHS within a much larger, multi-product distribution network.
• Univar Solutions: Univar Solutions is a major global chemical and ingredient distributor that operates polymer distribution, warehousing, and value-added handling services across multiple regions. Comparable in handling services but with a substantially broader product and geographic portfolio than RHS.
• INEOS: INEOS is one of the world's largest chemicals and petrochemicals producers, with internal resin production, warehousing, and logistics operations across Europe including the UK. Comparable as a major UK plastics value-chain participant, though its scale dwarfs that of RHS.

Direct peers

• M. Holland: M. Holland is a North American plastics resin distributor offering warehousing, repackaging, blending, and logistics services for prime and recycled resins. Directly comparable service mix to RHS, though operating primarily in the US market.
• Nexeo Plastics: Nexeo Plastics is a global plastics resin distributor that supplies thermoplastics and provides associated logistics, warehousing, and material handling services. Comparable to RHS as a plastics-focused distribution and handling provider serving processors and compounders.
• Snetor: Snetor is a polymer distribution and trading group providing storage, blending, and logistics services for polyolefins and engineering plastics across Europe, Latin America, and beyond. Comparable to RHS in its handling and processing service model for resin customers.
• Ravago: Ravago is one of the world's largest polymer distributors and recyclers, operating bulk warehousing, blending, compounding, and repacking services for plastic resins globally. Directly comparable to RHS in offering storage and material processing services for resin customers, though at vastly greater scale.
• Distrupol: Distrupol is a UK- and Ireland-based plastics distribution business (now part of Univar Solutions) supplying thermoplastics with associated warehousing and technical services. Historically a direct competitor to RHS in UK polymer distribution and storage.

Others

• Helvoet Rubber & Plastic Technologies: Helvoet is a European manufacturer of precision rubber and plastic components with in-house material handling and compounding operations. Adjacent to RHS in working with polymer materials and managing resin processing infrastructure, though primarily a finished-components manufacturer rather than a third-party handler.
