Plastic Extrusion – Keeping You Safe

We are constantly trying to produce a world where we are protected from harmful situations. You might not have realised this. Plastic extrusion often plays an important role in our safety. Read on for some examples to see how plastic extrusion is keeping you safe.

Vehicles

Plastics can be extruded into plastic foams that almost provide a cushioning for parts of the car. The rigid vehicle structures can therefore be supported by this plastic that can be inserted into the vehicle. Foam is often inserted into the car roof to cushion the vehicle and to lessen a crumpling effect if the vehicle were to roll over.

Medical

Plastic extrusion can also be used to help save lives as it as often used for containers, pumps, tubing and much more. Its flexible, non –toxic, lightweight yet tough properties offer huge benefits to human health.
