If you are asking yourself should my design be Rotational Moulded or Injection Moulded use this guide below to determine the best manufacturing process.

Is your design large? If so, we recommend that your part should be rotational moulded as it will reduce the manufacturing cost as the rotational moulding capacity requirements are a lot larger than injection moulding

Does your product need to be lightweight? If so, we recommend injection moulding as injection moulded parts are more lightweight than rotational moulded parts. This is due to injection moulded parts using a significantly less amount of plastic as the achieving your desired wall thickness is more accurate than rotational moulding.

Are you looking for less Initial costs for your design? If so and your product meets the rotational moulding requirements, we would recommend rotational moulding as this process uses low pressure, meaning that it can use less expensive materials to create the tooling and there is no ejection or in mould cooling required, reducing the cost.

Will your product be used outdoors? If so, we recommend rotational moulding as the parts are manufactured stronger and durable than injection moulded parts.

Is your design complex? If so, we recommend injection moulding as every part of the mould is filled with plastic, allowing the process to manufacture more complex designs.

Is it important that your product is sustainable? If so, we recommend either as excess plastic parts can be reused to manufacture other parts for rotational moulding or injection moulding.

Does your design require a fast turnaround? If so, we recommend Injection moulding as injection moulded parts are faster to manufacture and distribute. This is due to the process using high pressures to increase the production time of parts.

Does your product need to be hardwearing? If so, we recommend rotational moulding as the parts are more durable and stronger.
