Basic Information:

Benefits of Our Products:

1. Superior Precision & Consistency

High-precision steel molds ensure uniform thickness, texture, and logo detailing across every mitt, eliminating defects and maintaining product reliability.

2. Enhanced Durability & Heat Resistance

Compression molding under high heat (300–350°F) and pressure fully cross-links platinum-cured silicone, creating a dense, non-porous structure resistant to tears and extreme temperatures (up to 450°F).

3. Cost-Effective Scalability

Rapid cycle times (2–5 minutes per mitt) and minimal material waste streamline mass production, reducing per-unit costs for bulk OEM orders.

4. Flexible Customization

Easily adaptable molds allow tailored designs, textures, and branded elements without expensive retooling, ideal for custom kitchen gadgets and private-label partnerships.

Production Process:

1. Material Preparation

High-quality platinum-cured silicone (FDA/LFGB-compliant) is mixed with pigments or additives to achieve desired color and performance properties, ensuring heat resistance and flexibility.

2. Mold Setup

Custom-designed steel or aluminum molds are precision-machined to replicate oven mitt shapes, textures, and brand-specific logos. Molds are preheated to optimize material flow and curing.

3. Preform Cutting

Pre-measured silicone sheets or preforms are cut to match mold cavity volumes, minimizing waste and ensuring consistency.

4. Compression Molding

Preforms are placed into the mold cavity. Under high pressure (15–20 MPa) and heat (300–350°F), the silicone liquefies, fills the mold, and begins curing.

5. Curing & Vulcanization

The mold is held under heat and pressure for 2–5 minutes, allowing the platinum-cured silicone to fully cross-link, achieving optimal durability and heat resistance (up to 450°F).

6. Demolding & Cooling

The solidified mitt is removed automatically or manually. Post-curing may occur to enhance mechanical properties before cooling to room temperature.

7. Trimming & Deflashing

Excess material (flash) is removed using precision trimming tools or automated systems, ensuring smooth edges and a polished finish.

8. Quality Inspection

Each mitt undergoes rigorous checks for defects, heat resistance, thickness consistency, and certification compliance (FDA, LFGB). Custom logos/designs are verified for accuracy.

9. Packaging

Approved mitts are packaged in branded or OEM-specific boxes, sleeves, or bulk formats, ready for retail or wholesale distribution.
