Components for Appliance Applications

Mar-Bal’s material engineering team can customize a material to fit your application and meet your exact specifications.  Thermoset composites deliver a number of benefits for Appliance products including but not limited to:

  • Heat Resistance
  • Chemical Resistance
  • Corrosion Resistance

Then Mar-Bal’s mechanical engineering and project management team can design a custom part that can provide for parts consolidation and function with molded-in inserts and eliminate secondary processing.  The designs will maximize molded dimensional accuracy and deliver:

  • Molded-in Color
  • Tight tolerances
  • Low-post mold shrinkage
  • Repeatable moldings

Example of Applications:

End Products: Washers, Dryers,  Refrigerators, Freezers, Ranges, Ovens, Dishwashers

Components: Control Panels, Handles, Knobs, Vent Trims, Side Trims, Motor Housings, Kick Plates
