Are Recycled Injection Moulding Materials Right for you? Comparing recycled thermoplastics with traditional thermoplastics for injection Moulding.
In today’s world, where sustainability is a pressing global concern, the need for greener manufacturing practices has never been more crucial. In this blog we delve into the realm of recycled materials for injection moulding and explore their potential to replace their traditional counterparts.
We compare characteristics such as heat deflection, shrinkage, yield strength, and more.
Lyfecycle Case Study
Protolabs helps sustainable plastic innovators Lyfecycle join the race for climate awareness at Extreme E.
Polymateria are British innovators and inventors of the world’s first self-destructing plastic technology. The company, which has been lauded by Prince Charles for their work in tackling plastic pollution, approached Protolabs for digital manufacturing support in raising awareness of the issue and their ground-breaking technology that could ultimately help solve it.
Read MoreSustainability in general is something that’s probably a bit too weighty a topic to take on in a five-minute video. So, instead, we’re going to be taking a look at how sustainability relates to 3D printing as a technology, how it stacks up against other manufacturing methods and what shortcomings it might have.
