Injection Molding

Reaction Injection Molding enabling the encapsulation of electronics for comfort and design

NO MORE HARDCASES

Enabling Softer Solutions

Upgrade your product offering with our patented reaction injection molding process that can create 3D contoured performance foam components for use across a variety of applications, from impact protection to the encapsulation of electronics. This process is carried out at lower temperatures, allowing us to utilize thermally sensitive fabrics and integrate electronic components. Additionally, this technology is more sustainable than traditional molding techniques, generating up to 96% less landfill waste.
