Injection molding is the process of injecting molten plastic material into a mold. Once cooled the product is taken out of the mold. It is the most common type of plastic product production because it is cost effective and extremely fast.
Compression molding is a much slower process. However, in the past you were able to use a greater assortment of recycled plastic waste.
Today, Plascon Plastics has the patents to use different types of PCR such as Car Tires within injection molding. This means you can have many of the benefits seen with compression molding while also achieve the speed and cost effectiveness with injection molding.
