Metalloplastics

Metalloplastics

Specialising in the processing of materials by assembly and injection, the Clayens Group works
alongside manufacturers to design parts that combine plastic and metal.

Design and manufacture of metalloplastic parts

Metalloplastic parts have a wide range of applications, an example of which is high-power automotive connectors. They are unique in that they combine metal and plastic to meet specific criteria, such as electrical insulation. Metal is a very rigid material that can withstand high temperatures and pressure. Plastic, on the other hand, is renowned for its insulating properties and offers greater design freedom.

At Clayens, we offer a comprehensive solution for your metalloplastic projects:

  • Strip overmoulding
  • Metal overmoulding
  • Metal-plastic assembly
  • Injection moulding of metal inserts 

Combining metal and plastic for high-performance parts

Our design office provides step-by-step or co-design support to combine plastic components with metal components.
