Injection Molding Solutions for the Transportation Industry

Lewis Plastics provides custom injection molding and insert molding manufacturing services for transportation equipment that demands safety, reliability, and strength. Our molded components perform under continuous vibration, impact, and environmental exposure – conditions that define the modern transportation industry.

Durable Components for On-Road and Off-Road Applications

We produce molded and insert-molded parts used in heavy trucks, buses, recreational vehicles, and industrial transport systems. Common applications include brackets, housings, handles, covers, and structural components that must endure vibration, impact, and environmental exposure.

Material Selection for Strength and Longevity

Transportation components face constant stress and temperature variation. Lewis Plastics works with injection molding materials such as ABS, polypropylene, nylon, and glass-filled blends that balance toughness with weight reduction. Material recommendations are guided by each project’s performance requirements and regulatory standards.

Streamlined Manufacturing and Value-Added Services

With press capacities from 55 to 1,574 tons, Lewis Plastics supports parts of varying size and complexity. Our secondary services, including ultrasonic welding, machining, decorating, and assembly, help reduce supplier count and accelerate production. KanBan and vendor-managed inventory (VMI) programs simplify logistics for recurring builds.

Quality You Can Count On

Every transportation project is produced under ISO 9001:2015 certification and validated through inspection and Statistical Process Control (SPC). Repeatable processes and responsive communication keep programs running on time and within specification.
