Rotational Molding

Plastics Engineering has conducted interviews throughout 2024 to obtain experts’ points of view on different topics related to the plastics industry.

The rotomolding industry thrives on creativity, innovation, and continuous improvement, offering young professionals immense opportunities.

The rotomolding industry is transforming technologically, enabling manufacturers to achieve higher precision, efficiency, and sustainability.

When we hear “recycled,” we often assume that the material originated from previously used products. However, “recycled” is evolving in rotomolding, driven by the need for more sustainable practices, market demand, and regulatory pressures.

Reverse engineering (RE) in plastics processing has become an essential method for product reproduction, improvement, and optimization. It involves a thorough understanding of the design, manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance stages.

Sustainability or design for the environment was almost always considered at the end of the design process. This can no longer be the case; sustainability is no longer about the environment. It is the environment. 

In response to the shifting demands of the rotational molding industry, companies are developing pioneering technologies to reduce cycle times and integrate recycled content into advanced materials.

Rotomolding brings substantial advancements to the production of Type IV hydrogen tanks by improving manufacturing efficiency and ensuring superior durability and strength in the final product.

A policy and Sustainability Management Program are not really useful unless the employees know about them and can take action to meet the targets. The employees can only do this if they know the targets and the progress towards the targets. 

Sustainability management is a continuing process that must become an integral part of the business operations. Sustainability management is not a single act but a process.
