Our Blow Molding Services
Formioo offers a full range of blow molding services, including extrusion blow molding, injection blow molding, stretch bow molding, and compression blow molding. We support a wide variety of thermoplastics such as HDPE, LDPE, PP, PET, PVC, and PC, allowing us to manufacture hollow parts with different mechanical and chemical performance requirements.
To meet functional and aesthetic needs, we offer surface finishing options such as deflashing, trimming, pad printing, and CNC post-processing. Our blow molding operations typically achieve dimensional tolerances of ±0.3 mm to ±0.5 mm, depending on part geometry and material type. All parts are inspected for wall thickness consistency, sealing quality, and overall dimensional accuracy.
A hot parison is extruded and inflated inside a mold to form uniform, hollow parts.
A preform is injection molded then blown to achieve precise and consistent hollow shapes.
A preheated preform is mechanically stretched before blowing, enhancing clarity and material strength.
Heated plastic is compressed in a mold and then blown to create complex, durable hollow products.

Blow Molding Materials
HDPE
HDPE is a prime candidate for blow molding due to its high strength-to-density ratio, chemical resistance, and processability. HDPE is lightweight, durable, and recyclable and is well suited for large volume usage. HDPE is used extensively for milk, detergent, and household chemical bottles, industrial drums and pails, and containers. Its impact strength and environmental stress cracking resistance deliver long-term performance in hostile applications.
- Mill Lead Time: Up to 3 days
- Color: White, translucent
PET
PET is most favored in blow molding for its unmatched clarity, light weight, and excellent gas barrier properties. It has extensive use in beverage bottles, packaging of food, and containers due to its freshness retention property and immunity to contamination. PET clarity and stiffness enable it to be used in products like soft drink bottles, water bottles, and salad packs. It is also fully recyclable, making production greener.
- Mill Lead Time: Up to 4 days
- Color: Clear, blue
PP
PP is an intensive blow molding material, described as being resistant to chemicals, elastic, and cost-effective. PP is used in automotive parts, medical bottles, and household products due to its sterility and strength. PP thermal stability enables its use in products like syringes, storage boxes, and food packages. The light weight and lack of fatigue make it applicable in numerous industries.
- Mill Lead Time: Up to 3 days
- Color: White, translucent
PVC
PVC is the most common blow molding process due to its low cost, flexibility, and resistance to chemicals. PVC is employed in its greatest uses in pipes, bottles, and medical tubing, where plasticity and transparency are required. PVC can be customized to possess particular properties, such as plasticity or hardness, and is particularly suited to such products as plumbing fixtures, intravenous bags, and water bottles. Its low processing difficulty and strength ensure consistent performance in different environments.
- Mill Lead Time: Up to 4 days
- Color: Clear, white
PS
PS is an inexpensive but hard plastic with high clarity and can also be blow molded inexpensively. It has widespread use in disposable cups, packages, and containers where its moldability and clarity are advantages. Easy coloration of PS and resistance to moisture are why it finds suitability in uses like yogurt cups, takeaway containers, and packaging trays. Low cost and ease of processing have made it a packaging staple.
