Rethinking Plastics: Our Commitment to Sustainability

In a world of dwindling resources, the plastics industry is often singled out. At Moulding Injection, we refuse to accept this as a finality. We are convinced that plastic—when well-designed, durable, and recycled—remains an essential material for the future.

Our commitment to eco-responsibility is more than just a label. It is a profound transformation of our working methods, built on four fundamental pillars.


1. Eco-Design: Thinking about End-of-Life from the Start

Responsibility begins at the drawing board. A poorly designed product becomes waste that is difficult to process. That is why our engineering department systematically integrates the product life cycle into its analyses:

  • Lightweighting: Using less material for equal strength.
  • Mono-material: Prioritizing the use of a single polymer per part to facilitate future recycling (unlike complex glued assemblies).
  • Durability: Fighting against planned obsolescence by designing robust parts built to last for years, not minutes.

2. Lean and Controlled Production

Our factory has been optimized to reduce its energy impact and waste. We apply a strict "Zero Loss" policy internally:

All our production scraps (runners, purgings) are granulated directly at the machine and re-injected into the production cycle. Nothing is lost, everything is transformed. Furthermore, we invest in next-generation electric injection presses, which are much more energy-efficient than older hydraulic systems.

 

3. Material Choice: Recycled & Bio-based

We support our clients in the transition toward more virtuous materials. We do not limit ourselves to standard fossil-based plastics:

  • Recycled Materials (rPET, rPP): We source granules derived from the recovery of post-consumer waste.
  • Bioplastics: We test and qualify polymers from renewable resources (starch, sugar cane) for applications whenever possible.

4. Short Circuit: Ecology through Proximity

This is often the forgotten argument: logistics. Importing a mold or parts from Asia generates a disastrous carbon footprint.

By producing in Belgium, in the heart of Europe, we drastically reduce the miles traveled by your products. Choosing Moulding Injection means choosing a local industry that respects the strictest environmental and social standards in the world (EU Standards).


Our Vision

Being eco-responsible doesn't mean stopping production. It means producing intelligently. It means ensuring that the part we manufacture today has real utility and a minimal impact on tomorrow.
