At Tecnoplastica, we choose the most suitable materials for the intended application and the final use of a product and make sure we keep abreast of the new ideas on the raw materials market.The main materials we use include: polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene (PE), ABS, PST, Plexiglas, Shock-proof, PET, ABS + Methacrylate, Cast, Extruded.
The choice of masters is given extra care for products where the final appearance is very important, for example products with a glittered, metallic, embossed or soft touch finish.
Specific types of materials are used for special needs, such as chromium plating or materials designed to make the final product soft to touch.
This is a field where specific study is fundamental and has to be targeted to suit a particular market and so comply with certain regulations or laws.
Tecnoplastica is committed to undertaking research in materials so that plastic can be used for parts traditionally made in more expensive materials such as aluminium, cast iron and steel plate. It is important to note that we always consider the material's recycling potential a top priority.
Thermoforming is a method of moulding hot plastics, starting out with sheets and using pressure or a vacuum.
It is a cost-effective technique that enables the production of polymer shells starting with a positive template (i.e. whose shape is identical to the final shell required) theoretically in infinite quantities. Tecnoplastica is able to respond to demands for high-quantity production runs, pre-series or limited series, thanks to its versatility and the low cost of the moulds. Tecnoplastica is a reliable and ideal partner for addressing the production of more ambitious projects.
