HOW IT’S MADE

It all starts with a mold typically machined from steel or aluminum. The type of metal and process of making a mold will depend on the part’s lifespan, size, complexity, and the kind of plastic needed. Both 2D and 3D shapes can be made from plastics with intricate detail. A thermoplastic is fed into an injection molding machine, plastic is heated, and then forced into a metal mold where it conforms to the shape of the cavity. The hot plastic is then cooled, and the hardened plastic is removed from the mold. The plastic part can undergo several secondary operations, like machining, powder coating, PVD coating, silkscreen, plating, sonic welding, and assembly. We specialize in large, high-quality cosmetic and unique polymer products and offer a great value proposition to our partners.
