Applications & Industries
Government & Defense
Governments use plastics in the construction of schools, libraries, and municipality buildings because it is durable, lightweight, and recyclable. Not only is plastic cheaper than other materials like steel and concrete, but it also has a longer lifespan which means that it will not need to be replaced as often.
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.
