30 Years On: From Ashes to Burning Bright

The 24th of September marks the 30th anniversary of the day Paul Frith, Managing Director of Multiplastics (Europe) Limited, stood and watched the business he had dedicated himself to burn to the ground.

Everything Paul had built with his American partners at Multi-Plastics Inc. was reduced to ashes; in just a few hours, everything was destroyed. That moment could have been the end - but instead, it became a turning point, a reminder that determination, courage, and sheer grit can rebuild you from nothing.

What defines Paul and Multi-Plastics is resilience. Less than four weeks later, against all odds, the business was back in new premises, servicing customers again.

Here’s to 30 years since that fire, and to the strength that carried Paul and Multi-Plastics forward. It's not about surviving the flames but thriving after them.
