At Knauf Industries we specialize in the production of various foamed plastic components. We use the most proven plastics processing technologies that allow us to apply the recommended solutions widely.

Foamed polystyrene used in the process of plastic molding as much as 98% consists of air enclosed in the granules of the material, which makes it extremely lightweight. In addition, it is odorless and neutral to the environment.

The molding of foamed plastic parts is our major specialty – among the materials we use are expanded polystyrene (EPS) and expanded polypropylene (EPP), as well as plastics, with the trade name Piocelan, which are a combination of the two above-mentioned materials.

The produced technical parts can adopt even the most complex forms, so we can fully customize the design to meet customer requirements.

Foamed plastics are also used as an alternative to traditional plastics, wood or metal for the production of lightweight and durable components.

Foam plastic molding is a modern technology that we use in a wide range of industrial production projects. With our professional support, companies in various sectors can expect the highest quality of requested plastic parts and production efficiency.

A highly qualified staff of engineers and years of experience is a guarantee of professional support. We offer efficient implementation and expert advice at every stage of the project – from the beginning to the final product.

In addition to the production process itself, we provide complex support in the implementation of any solution. Our services also include:

EPP is a very unique plastic with a porous structure, whose greatest advantages are:  lightness, strength, shock resistance and flexibility.

The extensive experience and numerous realized projects in foam molding as well as injection molding allow us to ensure high quality services. We act as a one-stop-shop for our customers, providing efficient implementation of all processes. We are happy to carry out hybrid projects combining these two technologies – foams and injection, which guarantees a simplified supply process of plastic components for our customers.

The quality of our solutions is confirmed by industry certifications such as IATF 16949 and ISO 9001:2009. In addition, with each implementation we take care to reduce the impact of our activities on the environment, as confirmed by the ISO 14001 Certificate.

We start each implementation with a comprehensive feasibility study conducted by highly qualified engineers. Our clients can benefit from professional support at every stage of the project.

One of the materials used in the molding process is EPP, a very unique plastic with a cellular structure, whose greatest advantages are its extreme lightness, strength, shock resistance and flexibility.

At Knauf Industries Group plants, we specialize in supplying expanded plastic products from materials such as expanded polystyrene (EPS) and expanded polypropylene (EPP).

The molding process uses pure steam delivered into the mold, allowing the granules of material to permanently bond into the set geometry of the part. Once the part is removed from the mold and cooled, the material takes on its target properties.

Foamed plastic molding is one of our most innovative technologies used to produce components for various industries. Among the most relevant advantages of this technique, it is worth mentioning its wide application and the possibility of customizing projects to meet the individual needs of each customer.

Our support includes different types of projects. We handle both simple operations within foamed plastics processing and the most complex implementations, such as overmolding with metal and plastic inserts:
