- Martyn Rowlands trained at the Central School of Arts and Crafts in London. Specialising in plastics, he was one of the first trained industrial designers to work with British industry after the Second World War. He was employed first by Bakelite Ltd., then set up the design department at Ekco Plastics, where his products won a number of design awards. In 1959, he left Ekco to work as an independent design consultant, at a time when the idea of the design consultancy in Britain was still in its infancy. One important commission during this period came from the GPO in 1966 for the popular telephone known as the 'Trimphone', which won a Design Council Award.
During the 1960s and 1970s, Rowlands designed plastics for domestic use for various clients including Insulex, the manufacturer of this insulating double-walled mug.

- The 'Nova' range of stackable plastic tableware included cups, saucers, plates, bowls, sugar bowls and jugs in four different colours; red, yellow, blue and brown. The bi-injection, two-colour moulding system of the 'Nova' range was a new technique - previously only used in the automotive industry for moulding red, amber and clear plastic rear light covers. Innovative in design terms, all the decoration occurred during the manufacturing process. Though this type of plastic was comparatively expensive, it was very rigid and resistant to staining, with high thermal resistance and good colouring properties.
During the 1960s a general fascination with new materials helped break down the traditional response to plastic as a cheap substitute for more luxury materials. Instead it was treated as a quality material in its own right. The 'Nova' range won the Duke of Edinburgh's Prize for Elegant Design in 1968. The judges especially commended the simplicity of production and the attempts to meet consumer requirements. Designs created an idea of the 1960s kitchen as a small area full of high-tech equipment. Modern-looking, space-saving, and stackable, 'Nova' appealed to designers as well as consumers. The range was retailed through image-conscious design stores like Habitat and Heal's.

- Title:
- 240mm Syclix
- Object name(s):
- medical; hospital equipment
- Brief description:
- A surgical instrument inspired by eminent surgeon John Wickham and designed by Random Design Ltd. This instrument was the winner of the 2006 Horner's Plastics Innovation and Design Award. Aiming to revolutionise minimally invasive surgical procedures the design eliminates the ring grip on conventional surgical instruments which can be restricting and tiring for surgeons. Control of the instrument is through rolling it with the forefinger and thumb and the jaws are controlled with minimal arm movement. Sovrin Plastics built the tooling and mould for the device and assembled the product.
