When stretching or molding a plastic sheet, the thermoforming process distorts the plastic along with any image printed on the sheet. If your design requires full graphic coverage, and/or images applied onto compound curves, the sheet or film can be pre-printed prior to thermoforming. The molded part can be decorated with Direct Print, Labels or with the amazing DuraTAG Ink Transfer process. In seconds, the material is cooled and the shape becomes permanent. The softened material is draped over a mold conforming it to the desired shape. The thermoforming process involves heating a plastic sheet or film so it becomes pliable. parts, whether they feature graphics, solid colors or clear material. Want to add a third dimension to your next project? Thermoforming is an excellent process for creating a permanent 3-D shape to P.O.P (Point-of-Purchase) signs and displays, as well as O.E.M.
