Our History.

EGR began in 1973, producing point-of-purchase products and providing light plastic fabrication services. A family business, EGR was founded by brothers Greg and Rod Horwill, who today act as the company's Directors. Among EGR's first products were nested acrylic coffee tables, acrylic shoe stands for chain stores, and plastic framed mirrors. The plastic framed mirrors were such a success that the company even invested in its own mirror arising machinery, to process mirrors from blanks - the first step in a long history of vertical integration.

In 1983 EGR began production of automotive accessories, beginning with acrylic Head Light Covers for the iconic Ford XD Falcon. Acrylic weathershields for a wide range of vehicles soon followed. Since then, we've gone from strength-to-strength with automotive products by continually investing in new machinery to expand our product offering. Today, Auto Accessories is now the largest division within EGR, producing thousands of products daily for markets around the world.

2012 saw EGR enter the world of high gloss building materials with the establishment of EGR's Building Products division. A heavy investment in technology has led to world-class products across our Zenolite, Lustrolite and StyleLite brands. With increasing success in the global marketplace, Building Products is giving architects and homeowners alike the power to create stunning high gloss interior spaces.

EGR has an experienced management team, a loyal workforce, and is proud of its commitment to innovation - nearly 20% of our staff are directly working in the development of new products. With the experience of forty years of successful operation, EGR is well prepared for the challenges of tomorrow.
