Materials
Selecting the correct material for each project can be a daunting task, requiring in-depth knowledge of the tolerances and specifications of the injection moulding resins available. Recommending the right type and grade of material depends on a thorough understanding of the product’s application.
Our material specialists and tooling engineers, through your project manager, will advise on the best materials for each application.
The following list is just a sample of the thousands of materials available on the market today. We often source bespoke materials for specific projects on behalf of our clients.
