HIPS sheet is a versatile cost-effective material engineered from tough polystyrene resins. High impact polystyrene sheet has excellent dimensional stability and HIPS polystyrene sheets 4x8 ft can be guillotine cut, die-cut, punched, and also painted and glued, properties that make it a popular option for machining pre-production prototypes.
High impact polystyrene sheet (HIPS) is a lightweight, cost-effective and terrifically versatile material which is highly receptive to thermoforming and printing. This material offers economy, durability, design versatility, and ease of fabrication. Hips plastic sheet other superior characteristics include flatness, lack of size limitations, die-cut capabilities, thermal stability, and low moisture absorption, making it ideal for many forms, including offset, screen, lithographic, digital, and flexographic printing.
High impact polystyrene sheets for crafts (HIPS) can be used in many print applications, including promotional signs, display materials and tags, posters, and retail packaging, etc. Thin polystyrene sheets can be used for thermoformed machine housing and parts, model making and plastic toys.
