Rotational Moulding• uses a measured amount of powdered plastics material in a mould

• the mould is closed and then rotated inside an oven

• the plastic melts and takes up the shape of the inside of the mould

• the mould is then cooled while it is still rotating

• the mould is stopped, opened and the product removed
