Custom Rotational Molding
Custom Rotational Molding, takes special planning and preparations. Very specialized training and a good deal of ability to deal with constant change. Rotational Molding is part science, but its also part "black art" that comes with years of experience and growth within the industry itself. While most "self proclaimed experts" have had limited experience in making just a small handdful of proprietary items usually, it's the larger custom shops where you will find employees who display extreme diversity and range in their capabilities of custom rotational molding. Custom Rotomolding continues to grow for the companies who continue to innovate and develop new products. The race to the bottom has caused some of the molders to cease to exist, but the future will always continue to be in innovations, developments and quality.

As with all specialized processes within specialty industries, there are tremendous variables and learning curves that go along with Custom Rotational Molding, especially in comparison to more common and traditionally molded products such as mailboxes, playground slides, water tanks and more. These variables are created by a number of variances including ambient temperatures, cook cycles, cool cycles, humidity, processing conditions and parameters, materials, metals (steel, aluminum, bronze) and so much more. There would be no (1) "magic bullet" to have all the rotational molding knowledge and expertise needed to successfully operate on your own in this industry. As many in the industry will tell you, most have been in the industry for majority of their professional careers and even many of them will admit to you that their knowledge is even limited in comparison to some of the more profound Rotational Molding leaders and executives.
Successful Custom Rotational Molding Companys have the ability to take a project from start to finish. Whether that is re-designing or rengineering a project from a sketch on a napkin, to a functional prototype to manufacturing the tooling, producing the products and even drop shipping them to customers!
One particular Rotational Molding Company has the ability to do about 90% of its business strictly custom Rotational Molding work for OEMS and other contract manufacturers, however, it's other 10% of its partnership and proprietary work involves extremely intense, high quality, custom specifications work for its own internal and external customers, including Aerospace Divisions, Burial Products and medical devices. This is what true innovation and capability in Custom Rotational Molding is all about!
