Polymer Group Inc. Introduces Fabrics for Plastic Injection Molders

Manufacturing News Center - New engineered materials help automotive manufacturers increase efficiencies, lower costs and offer improved part moldability

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C., U.S.A. -- October 05, 2004 -- Jobwerx News -- Polymer Group, Inc. today announced the commercial availability of new engineered materials offering benefits for injection molders in a wide range of automotive, and other recreational and residential applications.

The new, 100 percent-recyclable polyester (PET) fabrics are used as a backing material in the one-step injection molding process, which is increasingly being used by auto parts manufacturers for interior trim applications.

Laminated to knit facing materials for use in the injection molding process, these new lighter fabrics offer numerous benefits over traditional needlepunched fleece synthetic fabrics in the manufacturing process. In addition, these new fabrics help increase interior space in automobiles and improve acoustics.

"These new spunlace fabrics from PGI can help automotive parts manufacturers increase the efficiencies of their manufacturing operations in the one-step injection molding process, reduce quality defects and potentially save on labor costs," said Gerry Rumierz, PGI's Director of Sales, Automotive. "They are easier and less cumbersome to work with than needlepunch fabrics and also less expensive to ship."
