Top Grade Molds Ltd. will showcase its newest developments in mold technologies at K 2022, specifically high-performance industrial packaging for pails and buckets, as well as co-injection technology to address Post-Consumer Recycling (PCR) content. Regarding pails and buckets, Top Grade says it’s establishing new industry cycle time benchmarks for heavy wall containers. Regarding co-injection technology for PCR, the company says its working with molders to help satisfy or exceed legislation requirements now or in the near future to utilize recycled material in new products. At the show, the company will discuss a 5-gallon coinjected pail with a virgin polypropylene (PP) skin and PCR core. The goal for the patent-pending design is more than 30% fully encapsulated PCR content. Plastic Knife Mould Manufacturer
