We’re here to answer your questions about injection molding.

Q: What is injection molding?

A: Injection molding (or moulding) is the manufacturing process allowing for parts to be produced in large volumes. This is done by injecting molten materials into a mold (mould). It’s typically used as a large production process to manufacture thousands of identical products, and in our case, plastic products. Injection molding materials include metals, glasses, elastomers and confections, although it is most commonly used with thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers.
