Plastics and household appliances are inseparable

Plastics and household appliances are inseparable

Plastic is the representative of modern materials, and its advantages and disadvantages are as distinct. However, with the progress of science and technology, the performance of plastic is more and more easy to control. In almost all industries, the application of plastic is more and more extensive. The trend of “replacing steel with plastic” and “replacing wood with plastic” also reminds designers of the status of plastic as a material.

In the appearance design of household appliances, plastic is reused because of its superior plasticity, super processability, lightweight texture and popular cost performance. With the change of the popular trend of the appearance of home appliances and the improvement of plastic technology, plastic presents more and more diverse forms of expression in the appearance design of home appliances. Sometimes the “Facade” of the whole product is supported by a large-area panel, and sometimes it turns into a small decorative piece to add luster to the appearance design of home appliances. Beautify different types of home appliances, and plastics provide endless inspiration for the appearance design of home appliances.

The texture and surface presentation of materials can arouse human emotional instinct. People have their own assumptions about the function and perceived value of a material. In the past, plastic was often regarded as the representative of low-cost materials, but in recent years, this view has changed dramatically.

In recent years, the application of plastics in the fields of air conditioners, rice cookers, vacuum cleaners, floor sweeping robots, electric toothbrushes, electric irons, kitchen appliances and other products is refreshing. Take air conditioning as an example. Under the trend of art air conditioning, plastic combines various technologies to decorate the air conditioning with elegance, luxury, science and technology, freshness, slimness, or curvaceous, just like turning into a work of art at home.

The reason why plastics are recognized by home appliance enterprises is mainly because the sense of plastic in people’s eyes is actually the texture transferred by ordinary PP, PVC and other low-cost plastics in the past. Nowadays, more and more high-performance plastics such as PC (polycarbonate), ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer), PPSU (polyphenylsulfone) are applied to the appearance of home appliances, showing a sense of fashion instead of low-cost visibility High level sense of technology and environmental protection. Nowadays, new products(waffle machines, doughnut machines) and categories of household appliances are emerging in an endless stream, and the high-end household appliance industry has become the strategic focus. Plastics have made great contributions to the improvement of the “appearance” of household appliances.
