Rotational Moulding Machines: The Key to ‘Easy’ & Economic’ Moulding
Rotational moulding, commonly referred to as rotomoulding, is a popular ‘method of choice’ for production of hollow plastic products of varying forms and shapes. Rotational moulding is one of the fastest growing areas of the global plastics industry over the last few decades and offers umpteen benefits unlike other processing methods. The earliest reference to the concept of moulding, that mirrors the current process of rotational moulding, was a technical paper from Dresden, Germany that dates back to 1780-1790.
Rotational moulding machines have been, and will continue to be well-regarded for the operational advantages and unmatched versatility they offer. The type of plastic polymer used in a rotating moulding machine is entirely dependent on the end product desired by the respective use case. One of the distinct advantages of rotational moulding machines is the ease of producing large and hollow parts, such as oil tanks, which further pins their relevance as cost-effective yet productive tools for manufacturing a wide-range of products, ranging from tanks to complex medical products. In addition, growing number of packaging requirements coming from the shipping industry is one of the broad factors that upholds the growth of rotational moulding machines market.

Key Factors Shaping the Global Rotational Moulding Machines Market
Rotational Moulding Maintains the Integrity of the Product
Rotational moulding is a process where powdered-form of raw material is filled into a mould and rotated 360°, causing the softened material to disperse and stick to the wall of moulding material. Rotational moulding machines maintain uniform thickness throughout the container/part, as it continues to rotate during the heating as well as cooling phase. The rotational moulding machines market outlook is expected to be positive during the forecast period.
Increment in Export/Import to boost the Rotational Moulding Machines Market Growth
Increasing trade flows among emerging countries is expected to trigger the rotational moulding machines market growth. However, U.S. is the top importing country in the rotational moulding machines market. Increment in the manufacturing sector and investments in the moulding technologies is expected to drive the market growth in the next decade.
Rotational Moulding Machines: An Appropriate Choice for Hollow One-piece Containers
- Raw Material Preference: Manufacturers prefer polyethylene for this process and ~80% of all materials used in rotational moulding are polyethylene derivatives. Some of manufacturers are shifting towards polypropylene and co-polymer products, which is expected to change the consumption scenario in the upcoming years. Polypropylene has relatively low moulding ability and impact its strength, as compared to polyethylene.
- Low Installation Cost & Minimal Amount of Waste Generation: Plastic product that are manufactured through rotational moulding process keeps the cost down, after mould installation. The process generates very less amount of waste, as the leftover material can be removed by using adhesives and removers.
- Increasing Preference for Customized Solutions: Manufacturers in the industry are offering production-oriented tailor made machine alternatives, which is expected to bolster the demand for rotational moulding machines.
Independent Arm Machines Making the Process Easier
These machines consist of 3 or 4 arms that moves separately from one another. Independent arm rotational moulding machines result into more efficient production procedure. The addition of PLC controlling system is expected to increase the demand for rotational moulding machines globally.
- Persico Group, a leading manufacturer in the rotational moulding machines market, is offering a fully automated machinery in which heating is completely controlled and monitored by a PLC.
Automation: Driving the Rotational Moulding Machines Market Growth
Usage of automated feed lines, Internet of Things, and embedded linking may provide ease in manufacturing process. This is expected to get a noticeable share in the next ten years.
Substrate Resin Prices & Usage
Material prices are high in countries such as France, Italy, UK, and US, wherein low in Germany, Brazil, and China (as of 2017). The production capacity of LLDPE is highest in Asia, wherein China is the leading country in terms of polymer production.
GCC Hold Favorable Opportunities for Rotational Moulders
The North American region is prominent in terms of market share in the global rotational moulding machines market. China is anticipated to represent higher growth than other emerging countries such as India, GCC, and Mexico. The emerging economies are expected to drive the market growth by ~3%. South & East Asia are expected to be the leading regions in terms of growth rate.

Rotational Moulding Machines - The Future of Precision Lies in ‘Real-Time’
Precision continues to be a critical consideration in the process of rotomoulding process. In case the mold is removed earlier than required, the polymer grains remain half-melted that further result in formation of large bubbles in the polymer with adverse impact on the overall aesthetic and performance of finished products. On the other hand, delayed removal of the mold can result in degradation of the polymer by the high-temperature environment, bringing down strength of the plastic.
Historically, the rotomoulding processes were entirely dependent upon trial & error to fix a definite processing time. However, rapid advances in technology have turned the spotlight on real-time process controls on the basis of temperature of air inside the mold. Rotational moulding machines with real-time temperature controls not only facilitate the development of high-quality finished products but also offer significant savings in terms of energy and time. Such particulars make the feature of real-time temperature control a ‘must-have’ in case of new-age rotational moulding machines.
Asia’s Industrial Revolution Paves New Growth Alleys
Asia, the new frontier of industrial growth, is foreseen to promise new opportunities for the suppliers of rotational moulding machines. Governments in the developing as well as developed economies in Asia are incentivizing the local manufacturing of goods and putting in place various regulations to support the same, which is further complementing the sales of rotational moulding machines in this region. In addition, the pervasive trend of ‘Industry 4.0’ is further complementing the build-up of the Asian rotational moulding machines market during the assessment timeline.
