The Low Pressure Moulding process allows designers and engineers greater flexibility when designing products when compared to housing electronics in enclosures.

Low Pressure Moulding allows the encapsulation to be the enclosure meaning graphics and surface treatments can be moulded directly onto the surface of the part.

With Low Pressure Moulding, there is no need to compromise.
