Rotational Moulding for Kayaks

Looking for rotational moulding for kayaks? One of the services we offer is decoration and graphics for rotationally moulded kayaks.

Rotational moulding, also known as roto moulding, is an effective manufacturing process used to produce kayaks. It is often used to make kayaks and other recreational and watercraft items because it allows for the creation of large, complex shapes with a high level of structural integrity.

One of the key advantages of rotational moulding for kayaks is that it allows for the creation of large, complex shapes with a high level of structural integrity. 

Rotational moulding for kayaks – what is the process?

The process also produces parts with a smooth, consistent surface finish, and it is relatively inexpensive compared to other manufacturing processes.

In rotational moulding, powdered plastic resin is placed into a mould, which is then placed into a large oven. The mould is rotated continuously as it is heated, causing the plastic to melt and coat the inside of the mould. As the mould cools, the plastic solidifies and takes on the shape of the mould.

Benefits & advantages of roto-moulding for kayaks

There are several benefits to using rotational moulding for kayaks and other watercraft items.

These include and cover:

• Cost-effectiveness: Rotational moulding for kayaks is relatively inexpensive compared to other manufacturing processes, making it a good option for producing large, complex parts in high volumes.
• Watertight: Rotational moulding allows for the creation of large, complex shapes with a high level of integrity and waterproofing. This makes it well-suited for producing kayaks and other recreational and watercraft items.
• Smooth, consistent aerodynamic finish: The rotational moulding process produces parts with a smooth, consistent surface finish, which is important for ensuring that the kayak has a sleek, streamlined appearance. This also helps the kayak to glide seamlessly across the water
• Strength and durability: The rotational moulding process produces kayaks that are strong and durable, making them well suited for use in harsh environments like the water.
• Environmental benefits: Rotational moulding generates relatively little waste, and the plastic resins used in the process can be recycled, making it a more environmentally friendly and sustainable manufacturing process compared to some alternatives.
