At Polymershapes we can fabricate HIPS products to your exact parameters. Bring us your specifications and product vision and we’ll make it happen, right here in Southern California.

The Versatility of HIPS

High impact polystyrene is a versatile material that can be used in many different ways. At Polymershapes, we have the facilities to realize these possibilities. No HIPS product is too complex, obscure, or technically demanding for us to tackle.

Some of the many uses of the high impact polystyrene that we’ve delivered to our customers include:

  • Point of Purchase (POP) Displays
  • Food Containers & Reusable Utensils
  • Paint Components
  • Thermoformed Machinery Components

The Benefits of HIPS

In addition to its versatility, HIPS offers several other benefits that make it well-suited to many applications:

  • Easily moldable and shapeable, and highly machinable, allowing for a wide variety of thin shapes as well as elaborate 3D shapes
  • Stable and impact-resistant (like the name suggests), meaning it will hold its shape for a long time without deforming, including in the event of sudden heavy loads
  • Offers cost savings compared to many other types of plastics that may be used for similar applications
