If you've ever felt the smooth, rubbery grip on a pair of pliers or softened edges of some playground equipment, you've probably been enjoying some of the countless products that benefit from plastisol coatings. Made primarily of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with added plasticizers for stretchiness, plastisol is a liquid plastic, into which heated parts are usually dipped to coat them. Further heating after coating firms the plastisol into its permanent consistency.

Major Benefits of Plastisol Coatings

Plastisol's great versatility and durability make it a go-to coating option. Some of its other important benefits include:

Cost-effective

Plastisol is a very reasonably priced plastic coating choice, and its durability means its low expense pays off even more in the long run.

Resistant

Resistant to most environmental hazards, including moisture, chemicals, corrosion, impacts, abrasions, and electrical current, plastisol stands up to almost anything and shares that protection with whatever it coats.

Long-lasting

Because of its high resistance characteristics, plastisol tends to last a long time in almost any environment, making it an excellent choice for parts and products designed for extended use.

Performs Well in Diverse Environments

Plastisol coatings offer solid performance in a wide range of temperatures, making it a suitable option for even challenging applications.

Customizable

Whether you need a glittery look, a specific color, or a particular texture or finish, plastisol is ready to accommodate your needs. In addition, a variety of additives can add special characteristics to plastisol to make it more flame retardant, antimicrobial, UV-tolerant, or to meet other requirements.
