The Polymer Plastic
A new hot tub will start life as a small heap of polyethylene plastic granules which will eventually be turned into a fully functional hot tub. Polyethylene granules are used so that the new hot tub will not rot, rust or crack this give it an advantage over traditionally constructed Hot tubs. The polyethylene granules are a chemically complex material which has been carefully produced by chemical engineers to ensure the new hot tub is as strong and resistant to the elements as physically possible. They are both UV and Chemically resistant.

The first stage of the production process for the plastics engineer is to mix the polymer compounds to just the right colour for the new hot tub. This will be a carefully measured process using a number of different compounds as to produce an attractive and uniform finish. Once the mix of the Polyethylene compound is complete a measured amount will be poured into a cast aluminum mold and sealed using clamps around the rim of the mould.
