Thermoforming refers to a plastic forming technique that helps in making various packaging products. It involves heating rigid plastics, and other specialty materials to make them easy to manipulate. Thermoforming is differentiated as vacuum forming and pressure forming. In vacuum forming, plastic sheets are heated and placed over molds to be vacuumed into the desired shapes. On the other hand, in pressure forming, extra pressure is applied for better detail and texture. Thermoforming is utilized for making different packaging components and products. These products include unit dose packaging, such as blister packs for pharmaceutical and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, clamshell packaging for health and beauty items, and plastic trays for food products. Thermoforming offers various benefits, including adaptability to dynamic requirements, low operating cost, and large-scale customization availability. It also has a fast turnout time, which makes the process ideal for fulfilling last-minute orders.
