Plastic injection molding is a versatile method of manufacturing precision plastic components with complex designs. The process is efficient, reliable, and used for the mass production of the end product. Plastic components generally act as rigid packaging and are frequently modified to appeal to the changing tastes of customers. Precision plastic molds, sophisticated machines, and skilled labor are important factors for the industry. Quality being the key, precision mold manufacturers are generally in high demand. Shivshakti Plastomech, a manufacturer of advanced plastic injection molds, is one of the few industries, in India, that can meet the exacting standards demanded by the market.

Quality-based Manufactuing
Quality is the underlying strength of Shivshakti’s products and the company prioritizes quality over quantity. The industry has witnessed a sea change in the expectations of customers in the past few years. They demand quality, and the cost is no more a limiting factor. As Vikram Mistry and Haresh Wagh say, “We have seen market expectations for the last twenty years. People want better quality molds even though they are expensive. The expectation of customers is more on quality rather than on prices".
The production pattern, low-volume tooling, and molding services are designed to be extremely adaptive and customer friendly. Shivshakti Plastomech is capable of working with most injection molding resins. The company’s services are easily scalable and provide clients with quick, low-cost solutions. Shivshakthi’s expertise in the manufacture of cap molds differentiates it from its peers.
The mold manufacturing industry is faced with a severe shortage of skilled manpower and retaining talent is one of the biggest challenges faced. Employee-friendly policies have helped the company retain a team of experts, capable of working on complex molding issues. Their expertise and work experiences are the strengths and USP of the company.
