Metal substitution

Advanced high-performance plastics are opening up new possibilities to replace metal components in demanding applications. Driven by the need for greater material and energy efficiency, manufacturers are increasingly turning to innovative polymer solutions.

By reducing weight and simplifying production, plastics help lower overall system costs while improving performance. At the same time, they offer decisive advantages over metal: exceptional design freedom, excellent mechanical and chemical resistance, and – especially in injection molding – the ability to integrate multiple functions into a single, highly efficient component.
