Science - Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng / for a group active in vinyl compounds (legal text containing chemical terminology)
French term or phrase: pressage
Sorry for asking such a basic (to you) question, but I don't have a background in chemistry.

"Les vinyl compounds constituent la phase préalable à la transformation finale des résines PVC pour des applications aussi diverses que le bâtiment, l’automobile, le médical, les emballages, les chaussures ou encore l’équipement industriel. Les processus de transformation finale sont multiples : extrusion, injection, pressage, extrusion soufflage, rotomoulage."

Thanks for your help.

  -> Thanks, Alistair.

agree  Nigel Wheatley: yes, unplasticised PVC (uPVC) is quite hard, and can be stamped nicely, almost like metal
