First Polymer Training Skillnet

FPT, initiated by Plastics Ireland ( formerly known as the Plastics Industries Association) in 1999, operates as a training network led by the Irish Plastics Industry and is funded through the Skillnets programme.

Our focus is to deliver intensive, practical training that adds value to your business - theory, practice, correction, practice is the format of all of our training courses.

Our Speciality - Intensive Injection Moulding Training
We offer training courses at all levels of Injection Moulding - we break down the process using analogies (eg, injection speed and pressure = car accelerator and engine power). Our Trainees get to press lots of buttons and make lots of mistakes. Our Moulding courses are 60% practical.
