How Polystyrene Cutlery is Made
Creating plastic utensils starts with a computer-generated design down to exact specifications. Retlaw's CNC engineers can design your cutlery to meet any need, whether in compliance or in personalization. The in-house team coordinates with our machinists to shape the utensils from an inverted mold. The preferred plastic, whether polystyrene or polypropylene, is then cast or "injected" into the mold, where it takes its final shape. Once the cutlery is finished in production, Retlaw's quality control specialists inspect each piece to ensure desired results have been met.
Polystyrene vs. Polypropylene Plastic for Cutlery
Cutlery can be made from two forms of plastic and there are some cases where one option is better than the other. Polystyrene (PS) plastic is known to be durable, resistant to bacteria, and resistant to moisture. The cost of polystyrene is often slightly more than polypropylene (PP) plastic, another common option for molded utensils. PP plastic is known to be more flexible than PS plastic, more resistant to heat, and generally cheaper to produce in comparison.
It's ultimately worth consulting a product expert at Retlaw Industries to determine which plastic fits your production need the best.
