Choosing the Right Plastic Extrusion Material

Picking the right material for a plastic extrusion project comes down to weighing up cost, strength, flexibility and how the finished product will be used, and Rayda Plastics works through this with every customer before tooling is developed. Materials such as UPVC, ABS, HIPS, polyethylene, polypropylene, polycarbonate, TPE and nylon each bring a different balance of properties, and the company's experience across all of them helps narrow down the right one for a specific job rather than defaulting to whatever is cheapest or most familiar.
