Interform Manufacturing Ltd

Used as a technique for shaping flat plastic into a 3D form, thermoplastic vacuum forming involves heating the plastic sheet until flexible before withdrawing air between the heated sheet and mould.

Thermoplastic vacuum forming is well-suited for medium runs of production and comes with the following benefits:

  • Reduced tooling charges
  • Significantly reduced machine time and material costs
  • Wider material choice
