KYDEX® Injection Molding materials are a specialty formulated thermoplastic alloy and share the same physical properties as KYDEX® Thermoplastic sheet. When parts are from different sources, realizing visual consistency among materials can be extremely difficult.
Because KYDEX® 2200IM materials are specifically engineered to match KYDEX® thermoformed parts, they contribute to the overall seamless aesthetic and are as durable, and stain resistant. They are easy to disinfect and are ideal for smaller parts that are too complicated to thermoform, such as vent grilles or side panels on seats
KYDEX® 2200IM injection molding resins are available with integral color, and engineered with the same properties as KYDEX® 2200LT Thermoplastic sheet.

Cleanability & Chemical Resistance
Aggressive cleaning agents and disinfectants are critical in eliminating surface bacteria and fungi to reduce the spread of disease.
Testing results confirmed that KYDEX® Thermoplastics:
- are not adversely affected by hospital-grade CDC recognized disinfectants
- perform without loss of surface finish, colour fastness, or degradation of mechanical and physical properties
Using the right materials and understanding their compatibility with disinfectants is vital to ensuring a long, functional life.
