Custom PVC Molding Capabilities in DFW

At Metro Custom Plastics, innovation meets precision. As a trusted injection molding partner based in Texas and serving customers nationwide, Metro Custom Plastics provides manufacturers across a wide range of industries with high-quality, American-made plastic components engineered to perform. While the company is known for its work in oil and gas, construction, transportation, marine, filtration, and consumer markets, one area where Metro Custom Plastics truly excels is in custom PVC molding. From highly engineered parts to simple, durable components, Metro Custom Plastics delivers solutions designed around each customer’s exact needs.

What Is Custom PVC Molding?

Custom PVC molding is the process of creating unique parts made from polyvinyl chloride using molding techniques such as injection molding, extrusion, or blow molding. PVC remains one of the most versatile materials in the plastics industry. It offers a combination of durability, chemical resistance, impact strength, and cost-effectiveness that few materials can match. When companies require parts that provide structural integrity, withstand demanding environments, or meet precise performance requirements, PVC molding is often the ideal choice.

Metro Custom Plastics leverages advanced equipment, tooling expertise, and material knowledge to produce PVC components that meet strict quality and dimensional standards. Whether customers need a simple connector or a complex, multi-feature engineered component, Metro Custom Plastics has the capability to bring it to life.

Advanced Injection Molding for PVC Components

Injection molding is the primary method Metro Custom Plastics uses for producing custom PVC parts. This highly efficient process involves heating PVC resin, injecting it into a precision-machined mold, and forming the material into the desired shape. For customers with medium- to high-volume production requirements, injection molding provides consistency, repeatability, and excellent cost-per-part value.

Metro Custom Plastics operates modern injection molding equipment capable of producing parts with tight tolerances, intricate geometries, and demanding specifications. Their team understands the unique processing requirements of PVC—such as the need for controlled temperatures and specialized tooling—to ensure optimal mechanical properties and surface finishes.

Typical injection-molded PVC products include:

• Connectors and fittings
• Valve components
• Caps, plugs, and protective covers
• Custom enclosures and housings
• Brackets, clamps, and structural supports
• Consumer and industrial-grade components

Each part is engineered and molded to meet the customer’s functional, aesthetic, and environmental needs.

Custom Extruded PVC Profiles

In addition to injection molding, Metro Custom Plastics provides extrusion services for customers who require long, continuous PVC profiles. Extrusion allows PVC to be pushed through a custom die, creating a consistent cross-section along any length. This process is ideal for seals, channels, tubing, trims, and edge protection for industrial and commercial applications.

With an in-house team experienced in profile design and material selection, Metro Custom Plastics helps customers develop durable, cost-effective solutions that outperform off-the-shelf options.

Blow Molding for Hollow PVC Parts

For applications requiring lightweight, hollow shapes, blow molding offers an efficient and reliable manufacturing method. Metro Custom Plastics can produce custom PVC bottles, ducts, containers, and similar products that offer strength and uniform wall thickness while maintaining cost efficiency.

Their blow molding capabilities serve industries ranging from consumer goods to specialty industrial equipment, providing custom solutions where traditional rigid parts may not be ideal.

Why PVC Is the Ideal Material for Custom Molding

PVC’s combination of strength, affordability, and versatility makes it a popular choice for custom components. It is widely used across multiple industries because it offers:

1. Chemical and Corrosion Resistance

PVC stands up to oils, fuels, solvents, and corrosive agents, making it ideal for oil and gas, marine, and industrial applications.

2. Excellent Durability

PVC resists impact, abrasion, and weathering, ensuring long service life—indoors or outdoors.

3. Flame Resistance

With inherent fire-retardant properties, PVC offers improved safety for electrical and industrial components.

4. Flexibility & Rigidity Options

PVC can be formulated to be rigid, flexible, or semi-flexible, giving manufacturers more options to match performance requirements.

5. Cost-Effectiveness

Its affordability, ease of processing, and suitability for high-volume production make PVC one of the most economical molded materials available.

Metro Custom Plastics assists customers in selecting the correct PVC formulation—rigid or flexible, UV-stabilized, impact-resistant, heat-resistant, or chemically enhanced—to ensure the material matches the environment and application.

Serving a Wide Range of Industries

Because of its versatility, custom PVC molding plays a significant role in many of the industries Metro Custom Plastics supports. Their experience includes developing parts for:

Oil & Gas

In one of the toughest operating environments, PVC components such as thread protectors, caps, plugs, insulators, and custom connectors hold up reliably against chemicals, abrasion, and weather exposure.

Residential & Commercial Construction

From electrical components to custom fittings, extruded profiles, and protective covers, PVC parts are used throughout modern building systems.

Transportation & Automotive

Metro Custom Plastics produces durable molded PVC parts that withstand mechanical stress, vibration, and temperature fluctuations.

Pest Control Equipment

PVC’s chemical resistance and durability make it ideal for sprayer components, housings, nozzles, and custom assemblies used in pest control applications.

Marine and Outdoor Products

PVC’s natural weather resistance makes it perfect for marine fittings, protective components, and custom extrusions exposed to sun, saltwater, and changing temperatures.

Filtration and Fluid Handling

Custom PVC molded parts play a key role in filtration systems, pumps, housings, and fluid management equipment across multiple industries.

Metro Custom Plastics has the flexibility to support both niche custom designs and large-scale production runs, making them a preferred partner for companies seeking reliable, high-performance PVC components.
