There are many benefits to using performance plastics in manufacturing environments. Replacing metal parts with longer-lasting plastic parts can decrease those costs, while increasing mean time between repairs (MTBR) and producing less waste.
ABS/PVC
ABS/PVC blend sheet, such as Boltaron, offers some of the best aspects of these two common thermoplastics. Excellent for thermoforming applications, it maintains high consistency from lot to lot fabricating, and uniformity in deep draws and sharp corners. With superior impact resistance, and flame resistance ABS/PVC is seen in the aerospace industry, with grades to meet flame, smoke and toxicity standards. It is also a popular choice in electrical, medical, and clean room applications for its combination of beneficial properties.

Applications & Industries
Building & Construction
Polymershapes can equip your next project with high quality plastic building materials that will not splinter, warp, rot, or delaminate. Building and construction plastics provide UV and corrosion resistance, impact resistance, and other qualities that protect the integrity of your construction project.
Transportation
When used in structural, mechanical, or aesthetic applications, performance plastics offer a significant reduction in weight over traditional materials that can help you travel further for less money while also limiting your environmental impact.
Automotive
Plastics weigh less than alternative materials such as metal, and less weight means less fuel consumption, which is attractive to consumers when deciding what model to purchase.
