Forms heated polymer sheets into shapes using molds and vacuum or pressure, then cools and trims.

Thermoforming

Thermoforming heats a polymer sheet until pliable, then forms it into a specific shape using vacuum or pressure. Applications include food packaging, automotive panels, and medical trays. Bioplastics such as PLA are widely used in thermoforming for creating biodegradable packaging and disposable trays. These materials provide an eco-friendly alternative while meeting industry requirements for performance and sustainability.
