Graphics on plastic moulded products are everywhere — from everyday containers to high-end appliances. But applying these graphics needs the right methods for the best results. At Brilsol, we focus on providing smart and reliable solutions for graphics for plastic moulding, including both pre-mould graphics and post-mould graphics.

If you are still heating your graphics before applying them, you might be missing out on easier, better ways. Let’s walk you through it all.

What Are Graphics for Plastic Moulding?

Graphics for plastic moulding are designs, logos, or instructions that get applied to plastic products either before or after the moulding process. This step makes products look better and also gives them important details like brand names, warnings, or usage instructions.

There are mainly two methods:

  • Pre-Mould Graphics

  • Post-Mould Graphics

Each method comes with its own steps and benefits.

Pre-Mould Graphics for Plastic Moulding

Pre-mould graphics are added before the plastic material is moulded.
 The graphic becomes a part of the product during the moulding itself.
 This method provides a clean, embedded look that lasts a long time.

Benefits of Pre-Mould Graphics:

  • Graphics do not peel off

  • Resistant to wear and tear

  • Perfect for outdoor or tough-use products

Where to use Pre-Mould Graphics:

  • Automotive parts

  • Electrical enclosures

  • Toys and outdoor equipment

At Brilsol, we offer pre-mould graphics that fit easily into different moulding processes. Our materials are designed to hold color, shape, and print clarity even under high moulding temperatures.

Post-Mould Graphics for Plastic Moulding

Post-mould graphics are applied after the plastic part has been formed and cooled.
 This method allows flexibility and is good for products that need customized graphics.

Benefits of Post-Mould Graphics:

  • Perfect for short production runs

  • Easier to change designs

  • Works well with textured surfaces

Where to use Post-Mould Graphics:

  • Promotional products

  • Household items

  • Small batch production

Brilsol’s post-mould graphic solutions stick well to many types of plastics. Our products keep their print quality even with frequent use.

Still Heating Graphics Before Applying? Here’s What You’re Missing

Many manufacturers still heat their graphics before applying them to plastics.
 This old method often leads to:

  • Wrinkled graphics

  • Bubbles under the surface

  • Poor durability

  • Longer production times

Brilsol offers ready-to-apply graphics that do not need extra heating.
 Our special materials bond directly without creating bubbles or wrinkles.
 This means faster production, better finish, and lower rejection rates.

Common Mistakes in Plastic Moulding Graphics

Even the best graphics can fail if not applied correctly.
 Here are a few common mistakes:

Mistake Result
Using wrong graphic material Peeling, fading, cracking
Poor mould surface prep Graphics not sticking properly
Applying graphics too late Weak adhesion, poor finish
Wrong temperature settings Smudging or shrinkage

Tip: Always follow correct procedures and use the right materials from trusted suppliers like Brilsol.
