Dayatas Profab supplies recycled ABS pellets for injection moulding, made in Malaysia and packed in 25 kg bags, and sells PS and HIPS resin as well. Moulders use these resins for parts such as monitor housings and motorbike covers. Dayatas Profab sells to buyers all around the world, including China and India. Its spec sheets, test reports and certification are to come.
SC.01
Dayatas Profab sells three styrenic resins to injection moulders: ABS, PS and HIPS. The panels below set out what is on record for each, resin by resin, and each one links to a page of its own.
Dayatas Profab's ABS is the resin in the printed bags at the end of its production film: recycled pellet, made in Malaysia and packed in 25 kg bags printed "ABS RECYCLED PELLET / MADE IN MALAYSIA / NET WEIGHT 25KG". For PS and HIPS, the form, the packing, the colours and whether each is recycled or virgin are being confirmed, so each panel says so in one line rather than guess. Spec sheets for all three resins are to come, which is why no datasheet value appears in the panels; the documents chapter further down explains what a datasheet should show.

Moulders use Dayatas Profab's resin for parts such as monitor housings and motorbike covers. Both are injection-moulded shells: they must hold their shape, take a screw or a clip, and look finished straight out of the tool.
Beyond those two parts, each resin has its own territory. Injection moulding is the most common way ABS parts are made, and ABS goes into electronics housings, automotive parts and household appliances, where its strength, scratch resistance and finish count. HIPS is the more durable kind of polystyrene and goes into household appliances such as refrigerators. Polystyrene is easy to process and goes into electronics, household appliances, toys and disposables. Part by part, the comparison is on what moulders make with ABS, PS and HIPS.
→Parts moulded in Dayatas Profab's resin
| Resin | Known for | Typical uses |
|---|---|---|
| ABS | Strength, scratch resistance and an attractive finish | Electronics housings and enclosures, automotive parts, household appliances; injection moulding is the most common way ABS parts are made |
| PS | Easy to process; general-purpose, or crystal, PS | Electronics, household appliances, toys and disposables |
| HIPS | The more durable kind of polystyrene | Household appliances, for example refrigerators |
Dayatas Profab's ABS is recycled: its bags are printed "ABS RECYCLED PELLET". Whether Dayatas Profab's PS and HIPS are recycled or virgin is being confirmed.
ABS and polystyrene are thermoplastics: they melt when heated and harden again as they cool, so they can be reshaped over and over, which is what makes them mechanically recyclable. The heat of reprocessing can degrade the polymer, so with recycled resin a moulder's question is consistency from one lot to the next.
Consistency starts with the input: mixed or dirty scrap is one of the things that makes a recycled resin's properties wander. In Dayatas Profab's production film the scrap is crushed, washed and sorted before it is extruded. What Dayatas Profab can show today is that process itself, on film. How recycled and virgin resin compare is set out on recycled vs virgin resin.
BaggingSC.04
Buyers in Europe and America ask a lot for video of the production. Dayatas Profab's own production footage shows these steps: plastic scrap heaped in the yard, a loader tipping crushed flakes onto the stockpile, the washing line, the sorting machine and sorted flakes running into bulk bags, molten strands leaving the extruder into cooling water, fresh pellets crossing a vibrating sieve, pellets running from a silo into bags, and bagged resin stacked in the warehouse.
The line below logs those stations one by one. Every step, with its own clip and what happens to the plastic there, is on how Dayatas Profab's resin is made, and the 31-second production film plays on quality and documents.
StockA datasheet generally lists a grade's typical values, each with the standard it was measured to. The melt flow rate is the mass of molten resin, in grams, pushed through a standard die in ten minutes at a set temperature and load (ASTM D1238, ISO 1133-1); a recycled resin's melt flow is a first guide to whether it will flow like the resin you run now. Izod impact strength (ISO 180) shows how much energy the material absorbs before it breaks, and density (ISO 1183-1) sets part weight and shot size.
Dayatas Profab's spec sheets, test reports and certification are to come. Each will be posted on quality and documents when it is issued; until then no datasheet value is quoted on this site. The production film is ready now.
