WHAT WE DO
What Is Thermoforming?
Thermoforming is a manufacturing process that involves heating a plastic sheet until it becomes pliable, then shaping it over a mold using vacuum, pressure, or mechanical assistance. Once the plastic conforms to the mold, it is cooled and trimmed to create the final product.
Thermoforming is widely used in industries such as packaging, medical devices, automotive, and consumer goods due to its versatility and cost efficiency.
