At SRT Plastics, we don’t just process plastic. We solve problems with it. Our blog is where we share what we’ve learned from decades of experience in technical plastic fabrication across machine building, electrotechnics, logistics, and cleanroom environments. From comparing materials to exploring industry-specific use cases, you’ll find practical insights to help you design smarter, build faster, and source more efficiently. Whether you're an engineer, buyer, or project manager, this is your hub for knowledge, trends, and behind-the-scenes solutions.
Discover how engineered plastics like ABS, HPL, and polycarbonate are increasingly replacing metal in modern machine building. This article explores six key reasons to consider plastics instead of metal, including benefits such as lower weight, corrosion resistance, transparency, and greater design freedom. Real examples from SRT Plastics show how this shift delivers both technical and economic advantages.
Selecting the right plastic for your industrial enclosure helps ensure long-term protection, performance, and cost-efficiency. This article outlines six key factors to consider, including impact resistance, insulation, and hygiene requirements. It also compares popular materials like ABS, polycarbonate, HPL, and PETG to help guide your decision.
Recycled plastic sheets offer a sustainable, cost-effective, and technically reliable alternative for industrial manufacturing. This article explores how recycled ABS materials support circular production while delivering high performance in applications such as machine covers, panels, trays, and enclosures.
Choosing a fabrication partner is about more than machines and materials. In this article, we explore the six traits that define a reliable plastic fabrication partner and explain why collaboration, flexibility, and in-house expertise make all the difference in industrial projects.
