2K injection moulding

Monosandwich

Monosandwich 2K moulding means that with one injection, you get two different plastic materials in the same part.

This allows you to combine different material properties in one mould, such as a strong core with a softer surface layer. You can also choose to use re-granulated plastic material (recycled plastic) in the core and new plastic for the surface layer.

With Monosandwich, you have a unique opportunity to use recycled plastic in the core of your item while still using new plastic on top to give you the surface you want.

Injection moulding with the Monosandwich method is done using a standard tool. For you, this means that you don’t need to use 2K (two-component) moulding tools, which are significantly more expensive than standard tools.

When working with 2K Monosandwich, the two materials must be chemically compatible, but don’t worry: we can guide you and tell you all about the possibilities for your particular product!
