HIPS is a type of thermoplastic that can be shaped easily using heat, it can be recycled into a wide variety of applications.
HIPS is often specified for low strength structural applications when impact resistance, machinability, and low cost are required. It is frequently used machining pre-production prototypes since it has excellent dimensional stability and is easy to fabricate, paint, and glue.
A versatile, cost-effective, impact-resistant material, which is easy to vacuum form, extrude, bend and mold into shape. It boasts extreme malleability and can be re-molded over and over, making it environmentally friendly, as it can be recycled.
