In addition, because it is difficult to bond textiles to parts with intricate curves and shapes, the application of fabric can limit design options and increase scrap rates.
Standard injection molding (no secondary processes required)
Reusable concentrates significantly reduce time spent cleaning extrusion and injection molding equipment.
