material that are composed by blending polystyrene and rubber. Also known as
thermoplastic material, HIPS available in small granular form serve as the
primary raw material for producing plastic products. The resultant products are
tough and resistant to impact. The grey, black, red and white HIPS granules are
melted in the process followed by forming process. Whichever production
