ShapeLock! Create what you need. Easy.






Ugly website, beautiful product! ShapeLock is a super strong plastic similar to Nylon or Polypropylene in toughness. However, unlike the two former plastics it does not need high temperatures or high pressures to form into useful shapes. ShapeLock is easily hand-formed into shape at just 70°C (150°F).
