When it comes to manufacturing custom electronic enclosures, many customers have a misperception about the utilization of plastics versus metal materials. Perhaps this is because metal is the default material for so many manufacturing applications, or because plastics were traditionally inferior to metal for many products.

However, decades of engineering and innovations in materials science have substantially improved the strength, reliability, and longevity of specialized plastics. As such, custom injection molded plastics are now the preferred material for electronic enclosures in a number of unique applications.

For many applications, specialized plastics are the ideal material to use for manufacturing electrical enclosures. That’s why plastics have become the standard for a wide range of modern electronics applications. Below, we discuss some of the most common uses, along with some of the advantages of plastic electronic enclosures for these applications.

Specialized plastics are generally the ideal material used in today’s manufacturing of electronics enclosures. Compared to metal enclosures, plastic electronic enclosures offer a number of unique advantages such as enhanced durability and resistance to extreme temperatures. Additionally, production cost savings are often possible due to the efficiency of custom plastic molding design and manufacturing processes.
