A manufacturer of insulated catering transport containers required a more efficient manufacturing process than roto-molding could manage. Their product had to maintain temperature, endure heavy handling, and present a clean, professional finish. However, roto-molding resulted in high production costs, longer cycle times, added weight, and created a poor surface finish.
Emabond technology revolutionized the way they manufactured these insulated catering containers. The welding process enabled a two-piece injection-molded design, replacing the costly and design-limited roto-molding process and drastically reducing cycle times. The design leveraged custom-formulated Emabond material to create flash-free, hermetic seals along weld lines extending over 13 feet across the main body and lid, with cycle times short enough to make high-volume production practical. Emabond gave them a way to achieve all their performance goals, from NSF approval to dishwasher safety, while also improving insulation, reducing weight, and producing a higher-quality surface finish.
By replacing roto-molding with Emabond, they solved immediate cost and quality issues while improving product quality and durability. The new process produced lighter, stronger, and better-looking containers that met NSF and dishwasher safety standards while reducing costs and improving performance. As a result, the manufacturer has utilized Emabond technology for more than 30 years.
