Plastics for vacuum forming

The manufacture of components using vacuum forming processes demands a great deal of expertise. Every manufacturer is faced with the challenge of producing components quickly, reliably and in the desired quantity. From the tool through heating to the pressure, a lot of factors need to be considered. Just as vital for manufacture are high-quality materials suitable for vacuumforming. From HIPS through ABS and PC/ABS to ASA, we offer a large selection of single-layer and co-extruded sheets and film made of plastics suitable for vacuum forming for a whole range of different requirements. They help in the manufacture of reliable and efficient vacuum formed components.
