DecoJectTM
The innovative foil solution for
injection molding applications

Easy-to-apply and uniformly thick
facing for injection molded parts:
DecoJect is the low-cost alternative
to painted injection molding. A highquality
thin foil offering designers
maximum freedom – wear-resistant,
adaptable, pleasant-to-the-touch.
+ TPO-based foil, 0.2 to 0.5 mm thick, used primarily
as facing on injection molded parts.
+ Potential application areas are lacquered and unlacquered
injection molded parts in the automotive
interior.
+ The foil is pleasant-to-the-touch and scratchresistant
and gives the car interior a high-value
appearance. The degree of gloss and color can
be adjusted as desired.
+ In the course of foil backing, the surface structure
of the mold is imparted to the thin foil and thus to
the part.
+ A wide range of variable designs can be achieved
by simply altering the decorative effects, i. e. the
colors, patterns or special effect lacquers used.
DecoJect opens the way to color and design versatility Injection molding of foil backing * is fast and easy with DecoJect .
