Polyresin mixed with stone powder

Poly, Polyresin, Polystone, and Resin are terms that refer to the materials used in our products: synthetic resin low-temperature molding/synthetic resin.

The first step in production is to mix polyresin with stone powder. Polyresin is a type of low-temperature resin. It is replicated using a silicone mold, which is soft and does not require metal molds or injection machines, making the production process relatively simple.

This method allows for low-temperature shaping, cost-effective molds, and a low minimum production quantity, making it ideal for producing a variety of products in small quantities.

The advantages are:

  1. Lower Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ): Compared to injection molding, the minimum production quantity using polyresin is lower.
  2. Cost-Effective Material: The material is relatively inexpensive.
  3. Heat Resistance: Resistant to deterioration when exposed to heat; it has good heat resistance.
  4. High Hardness: Exhibits a high level of hardness.
  5. Customizable Weight: Different materials can be added to increase the weight as needed.
  6. High Detailing Capability: Demonstrates a high level of detail in reproducing various surface textures.
  7. Long Lifespan: Longer lifespan with resistance to damage; it does not easily deform or discolor, making it well-preserved over time.
  8. Versatile Additives: Different materials such as stone, metal, or cement can be added.
  9. Varied Textures: Can produce different textures such as imitation glass, imitation crystal, or acrylic-like finishes.

The disadvantages are:

  1. Increased Weight: The addition of stone powder increases the weight of the finished product, making transportation and handling less convenient.
  2. Lack of Flexibility: The material lacks elasticity, making it prone to fracture or break upon impact. Additionally, it is not easily processed or cut.
