ABS is the acronym for Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (which is a lot easier to say and write). ABS is a common thermoplastic polymer which is prized for its toughness and impact resistance.

This plastic can be injection molded, extruded, molded, pressure formed, sawed, drilled, turned, stamped, milled, etc. We supply ABS in either black or white.

What are the Advantages of Using ABS Plastic?

  • Ease of fabrication and colouring
