From manhole covers to lids to control valves, many wastewater applications are being molded from Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) and Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) material. Ideally suited for the unique needs of the wastewater treatment market, manufacturers and molders can request a custom-formulation of the material to fit the unique needs of each specific application. Whether an outdoor manhole cover that needs to resist deterioration from exposure to harmful UV rays, or a plumbing flange that must resist corrosive chemicals, IDI can develop a material to enhance your next product design.
There is an economic benefit to switching to thermoset BMC and SMC for wastewater applications as well. Products in this market are traditionally dominated by die-cast aluminum that is subject to machining and welding. Molding a single-part from BMC/SMC shortens design and production, and provides a finished product that will stand up to the harsh environments for years to come. Contact our engineering team today and find the benefits of molding your next product with thermoset composites.
