You can combine the performance of expanded polystyrene with design and durability!
"Surface Coating Molding" is a technology that optimizes the mold temperature conditions during molding to achieve (1) the fusion of beads and (2) the melting and solidification of the product surface within one cycle, forming a coating of approximately 0.1mm to 2.0mm on the product surface. With a hard coating layer, it is possible to maintain the performance of expanded polystyrene (lightweight and thermal insulation) while combining aesthetics and durability. Traditionally, a separate sheet (such as resin) was required for the surface, but with this technology, molding can be done using only expanded polystyrene, allowing for the use of a single type of expanded polystyrene mold, which reduces initial costs. [Features] ■ Forms a coating of approximately 0.1mm to 2.0mm on the product surface ■ Can combine aesthetics and durability ■ Easy to separate for recycling due to being a single material ■ Allows for the use of a single type of expanded polystyrene mold, reducing initial costs ■ Easy to achieve clean printing on the surface ■ Various "embossed patterns" can also be processed *For more details, please refer to the related link page or feel free to contact us.
