A mixing device for mixing together multi-component plastics materials, for example polyurethane, comprises a mixing chamber into which supply ducts for the components lead and in which a piston is reciprocable between a retracted position in which the supply ducts are in communication with the mixing chamber and a forward position in which the supply ducts are shut off from the mixing chamber. The piston is provided with an axial bore through it connected to a supply of air under pressure to enable air to be supplied into the mixing chamber together with the components for producing plastic foam such as foamed polyurethane.
