Modern PLAST was established in 2017, as an injection moulding service provider with brand new machinery in-order -to provide reliable and high quality service at an affordable price to their clients. Machines are capable of processing a wide range of plastic material grades and as they are servo-controlled injection moulding machines, the power consumption, fast cycling, the quality and dimensional stability of the products are assured.
With the acquiring of a complete set tool making machines in 2018, Modern PLAST entered in to Mould manufacturing field, with excellent capability of Hot Runner mould making technology. Their own hot runner pars or imported parts are installed in injection moulds as per client’s requirement.

The company has its own R&D team and their main role is to carry out Product Development, a sub process involved in New Product Development (NPD). In business and engineering, New Product Development (NPD) covers the complete process of bringing a new product to marketplace. NPD process involves eight key stages namely, idea generation, idea screening, concept development & testing, market strategy development, business analysis, product development, test market and commercialization.
- New product ideation
- Product design for manufacturability
- Engineering design
- Material recommendation
- Rapid prototyping (3D Printing)
- Mould development
- Designing and development of Packaging
- Injection/Blow machine Model and auxiliary equipment selection
- Mould qualification and product validation at the manufacture’s site
- Commissioning at client’s site
R&D team provides turnkey solutions for client’s new product development (NPD) requirement. Modern PLAST uses the latest versions of professional softwares such as Pro-E, Solid work, AutoCAD for designing.
