About Dormex

Dormex is a family owned business that was established in 1957 to distribute syringes and other medical equipment. Dormex pioneered disposable plastic syringes, replacing the previously used glass and metal syringes that were more expensive and required constant sterilisation.

Today, Dormex primarily trades in plastic laboratory equipment and pharmaceutical packaging. The company is accredited with ISO9001 quality standard is an approved supplier to the MOD and the NHS.

Dormex is also an official stockist and distributor for RPC Containers and for Calmar, a manufacturer of trigger sprays and dispensers. Numerous household names are also included in our customer base.

The company owns hundreds of stock moulds including novelty containers.
The company can offer countless variations of containers and closures, plain or decorated. Where companies operate a “just in time” policy, we are able to accommodate, by arranging this into our system.


The company operates a total quality policy.
