What is vinyl?
Slush molding is a plasticized material made from soft PVC (polyvinyl chloride) mixed with plasticizers and stabilizers. Because of its unique molding process, called rotocasting or slush molding, it’s often referred to as “slush molding” in the industry.

Application of Soft Vinyl (Rotocast) in Toy Model Production
Soft vinyl is widely used in the production of custom toys and collectible models, offering excellent protection for structural integrity and surface details. Unlike resin or PVC, soft vinyl is flexible, lightweight, and impact-resistant, making it ideal for hollow or large-scale figures. We customize vinyl to different thicknesses, colors, and hardness levels based on client needs, ensuring both design freedom and functionality. Its surface can be finished with matte, gloss, spray paint, or special coatings to achieve high visual appeal and artistic expression. With adaptable formulations, soft vinyl also meets environmental and toy safety standards, ensuring that collectibles are not only visually striking but also reliable and safe.
