Compared with
a traditional painting process, injection-molded Artisan materials also offer additional sustainable benefits:
energy use and VOC emissions are reduced by eliminating secondary painting or in-mold labeling.
If material is not in the
recommended moisture percentage for molding, dry
material until it is in the acceptable range for molding.
If material is not in the recommended
moisture percentage for molding, dry material until
it is in the acceptable range for molding.

Some common manufacturing options are pultrusion, resin injection, resin transfer molding (RTM) and filament winding.
Design flexibility — Composites can be molded into complex shapes and textures at a relatively low cost.
It is a continuous molding process where fibers are saturated with a liquid polymer, then carefully pulled through a heated die to form the parts.
