Thermoplastic Injection Moulding

Thermoplastic Injection Moulding

Merriott Group offers specialist thermoplastic injection moulding services to our commercial clients. This form of manufacturing allows us to produce plastic parts to your exact specifications again and again. Thermoplastics are polymers that can be heated in order to soften or melt them.

They are then injected into a mould when molten and allowed to cool before becoming solid once again. This process allows companies to produce large quantities of components or articles needed for specific requirements.

Thermoset Injection Moulding

Merriott Group is a specialist in the process of thermoset injection moulding, also known as DST (Direct Screw Transfer).

This process transforms granular materials into moulded shapes and components to meet the needs of our clients. For many, it provides the most suitable solution for component creation which, paired with our expertise and professionalism, meets specific requirements exactly.
Compression Mouldings

Compression Mouldings

Merriott Group provides a specialist compression moulding service to clients in the UK, and across the world. Our specialist team is able to produce composite moulded components in a range of sizes from a few grams up over 10 kilos in weight.
