MOCAP

What MOCAP does

MOCAP is a privately held industrial manufacturer founded in 1979 that produces protective caps, plugs, sleeves, masking products, tapes, tubes, and meshes in plastic and rubber materials. The company operates multiple specialized factories covering vinyl dip molding (PVC plastisol), plastic injection molding, thermoset rubber compression and injection molding (EPDM, silicone, neoprene, SBR, Viton), plastic tube extrusion, and silicone rubber extrusion, and claims to be the only manufacturer covering all of these processes under one organization. Secondary operations including printing, cutting, slitting, drilling, and assembly are performed in-house, and the company produces custom sizes, colors, hardnesses, and textures (diameters up to 400mm and lengths from 4 to 200mm).

MOCAP sells to a horizontally diversified customer base across automotive, surface treatment (powder coating, liquid paint, plating, e-coat), medical and pharmaceutical, home appliances, electronics, and HVAC end-markets. Its commercial model is sales-led: country-specific websites for eleven markets (Spain, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, USA, Canada, Mexico, China, Hong Kong), a centralized e-commerce storefront at store.mocap.co.uk, sample-request workflows, and direct customer service by phone. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and OHSAS 45001:2018 certifications, and asserts RoHS and REACH compliance — certifications that support qualification with regulated industrial buyers.

The business is family or founder-controlled and self-funded, with no disclosed venture capital, acquisitions, or leadership changes in the source material. Recent strategic activity centers on European distribution build-out, including the incorporation of MOCAP SP. Z O.O in Poland and the opening of a warehouse at BGO Park Poznań in Żberniki to shorten European delivery cycles. The company is positioned as a long-tenured, process-broad industrial components supplier serving global manufacturing customers through a catalog-plus-custom model rather than as a technology- or software-led business.
