Thermoforming (also known as vacuum forming) is supported using an extensive range of thermoforming plastics, including PETG, HIPS, ABS, PC, Acrylic, Kydex and more. The cost advantages and creative applications of thermoforming are accelerating its use in multiple applications, and with the utilization of low-cost tooling materials such as 3D printed tooling and tooling board, thermoforming has become a cost effective technology for start-ups and boutique businesses as well as large OEM's transitioning from LRIP to higher production volumes. Some of the benefits and/or applications for thermoforming include:
