Rotational moulding process step by step

Rotational moulding is a fun process, which you can use to create a lot of really cool things, like toys, playground equipment and even kayaks! At Young Mould we love rotational moulding and the awesome products we can create for both children and adults. 

Rotational moulding is a process that uses a type of plastic known as polyethylene powder. Next, this powder is poured into a mould, which is a large hollow form that mimics the final shape that you want to produce. The compound fills the underside of the mould and the lid is shut tightly and heated. The powder melts, adhering to the sides, forming a layer of plastic, as the mould rotates in slow motion. 

Preparing for the Rotational Moulding Process

Ensure the mould is clean and dry before process begins. Dirt or water that gets into the mould can ruin the final product. When the mould is set the polyethylene powder is carefully weighed and poured into the mould. The mould is closed — and put in an oven to bring it to temperature.
