Three Decades of VacuumInfusion Leadership
Interplastic has a long history of advancing the
technology of vacuum infusion. We’ve been supplying
vacuum infusion resins since the 1980s. In fact, we
provided one of the original resins for the first composite
made using the Seeman Composite Resin Infusion
Molding Process (SCRIMP)™.
Large, Complex Parts Made Simple
Interplastic helps meet the demands of the modern manufacturer. The latest
technology utilizes sophisticated resin channeling techniques and long-gel time
resins to help you produce large, complex components with precision.
The Interplastic Advantage
Interplastic offers vacuum infusion resins with tailored cure times that meet your
precise application requirements. Our resins help you make very consistent, high-
strength, lightweight parts that increase your product quality. The vacuum infusion
process, combined with Interplastic resins, decreases costs for labor, tooling and
equipment while substantially reducing styrene emissions, compared to open molding
and wet-layout vacuum bagging.
Our full line of resins is perfect for a wide range of applications, including marine
products and parts, vehicle components, surfboards, swimming pools, turbine rotor
blades and more.
Consistency and Quality Second to None
Interplastic delivers product consistency that performs exactly the same batch after batch and quality that
goes beyond the eye. Pioneers in vacuum infusion resins, our focus is on product performance to meet your specific
requirements. We operate five ISO 9001:2000-certified manufacturing plants and four development laboratories for
continual product innovation.
Call on the vacuum infusion experts for an infusion of quality into your products.
