At Contact Plastics, we specialise in rotational moulding—also known as rotomoulding—to manufacture durable, high-quality hollow plastic products. This versatile process enables us to create a wide range of components across multiple industries, offering superior strength, design flexibility, and cost efficiency.
Rotational moulding is an advanced manufacturing technique that involves heating and rotating a hollow mould to evenly distribute and solidify plastic material. The process consists of four key stages:
Loading – A precise amount of powdered plastic is placed into the mould.
Heating – The mould is heated and rotated on two axes, ensuring uniform coating.
Cooling – The mould cools while maintaining rotation, solidifying the plastic.
Unloading – The finished product is removed, ready for use or further processing.
This seamless and efficient process allows us to produce robust, high-performance plastic products tailored to your needs.
Enables the production of complex and intricate shapes
Supports seamless, stress-free parts with uniform thickness
Ideal for double-walled and contoured designs without additional assembly
Produces high-impact-resistant products
Ensures structural integrity with consistent wall thickness
Suitable for demanding applications requiring longevity
Lower tooling costs compared to other moulding methods
No need for intricate cores or complex mould components
Minimal post-processing reduces overall production expenses
Rotational moulding is widely used in diverse sectors, including:
Automotive – Fuel tanks, dashboards, and protective covers
Aerospace – Lightweight, durable components
Water Management – Storage tanks and drainage systems
Agriculture – Feeding troughs, storage bins, and equipment covers
Furniture – Outdoor chairs, tables, and storage units
Toys & Recreation – Playground equipment and durable plastic toys
We work with a variety of plastic materials, each offering unique benefits:
Polyethylene (PE) – High durability and chemical resistance
Polypropylene (PP) – Lightweight with excellent impact resistance
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) – Weather-resistant and versatile
Our team will help you select the most suitable material based on your product requirements, ensuring optimal performance and sustainability.
At Contact Plastics, we prioritise quality at every stage of the rotational moulding process. Our advanced technology, stringent quality control measures, and experienced professionals ensure that every product meets the highest industry standards. We monitor heating, cooling, and rotation parameters meticulously to guarantee consistent and superior results.
