Semi-custom fibreglass and composite parts for marine and industrial projects.

Vacuum Infusion Manufacturing

Vacuum infusion uses vacuum pressure to draw resin through dry reinforcement, helping produce a consistent part with controlled fibre-to-resin content.

This method can suit weight-sensitive, structural, or repeatable components where the part's geometry and finish requirements justify a more controlled process. The right method depends on the part, its intended use, tooling, production volume, and budget.

• Helpful where consistency and controlled fibre-to-resin content matter
• Can be appropriate for structural marine or industrial components
• Useful for repeatable work when the part and tooling are well defined

Hand Layup Composites

Hand layup applies resin and reinforcement manually, which gives flexibility on shape, detail, and repair work.

This method can suit custom geometry, prototypes, repairs, and lower-volume production where vacuum infusion or extensive tooling may not be the most practical choice. It is often a strong fit for one-off parts and jobs where the part needs to be adjusted during build.

• Useful for custom shapes, repairs, and prototypes
• Can be practical when tooling is limited or the part is still evolving
• Often suitable for one-off work and short runs

Custom Moulds & Tooling

Moulds and tooling can be produced around an existing plug, pattern, or part, supporting repeatable composite work when the project calls for it.

Tooling requirements depend on the part, the intended production volume, and the manufacturing approach chosen. Oceanus can discuss the right setup once the project details are clear.

Marine Composite Parts

Oceanus manufactures marine composite components for hull, deck, hatch, hardware, repair, and replacement work where a fibreglass or composite solution is appropriate.

Being based at North Saanich Marina keeps us close to the marine industry and the boat owners, builders, and repair businesses we work with on Vancouver Island and throughout British Columbia.

Fibreglass Repair & Refinishing

Oceanus can assess structural fibreglass repairs, impact damage, gelcoat repair, and surface refinishing where the component is suitable for restoration.

Each repair begins with an inspection of the damage and the intended use of the part so the right repair approach can be recommended.

Industrial Composite Parts

Industrial customers can contact us with drawings, measurements, photos, existing parts, patterns, and performance requirements to discuss a suitable composite solution.

Oceanus can advise on the manufacturing method and tooling approach once the project details are clear.

Composite manufacturing approached around the project

Oceanus Reinforced Plastics manufactures semi-custom fibreglass and composite parts in North Saanich, British Columbia, using hand layup and vacuum infusion.

Working from North Saanich Marina gives us a practical connection to marine customers and the marine trades, while also supporting industrial projects that require custom composite work.

We discuss each job directly so the manufacturing method, moulding approach, and build plan match the part's requirements as closely as possible.
