Vacuum Forming
Vacuum Forming is the process we use to describe the converting of solid sheet plastic through heat and vacuum. Traditionally, this is the “Colvin Packaging” portion of our business. From light gauge trays, blisters and clamshells (.010” in thickness) to heavy duty, deep draw totes and pallets (.500” in thickness), the capabilities of CP Products are unmatched by other vacuum formers nationally. In addition, our in-house tooling and pattern making can significantly shorten the pre-production sampling and lead time.
CP Products converts a wide range of substrates, including, but not limited to; Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC), Poly Ethylene Terephthalate (PETG), Stat-Rite, Styrene (HIPS), Conductive HIPS, High Density Poly Ethylene (HDPE) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Flocked Styrene. The wide spectrum of converted plastics is to answer an equally diverse product spectrum. CP Products has manufactured such high end items as cosmetic displays for Sebastian, as utilitarian as luggage handling totes for major airports across the nation and as specialized as technical Electro Static Dissipative (ESD) inserts for cochlear implants manufactured by Advanced Bionics.
