Custom Injection Molding for Thick-Wall Cosmetic Packaging: Hot Runner, 1*4 Cavities, Hardened S136, Mirror Polish.
Product Spotlights
As a dedicated manufacturer from Changzhou Hongxinyutai Precision Mold Co., Ltd., established in 2017, we specialize in delivering precision tooling solutions for demanding applications. Our custom injection molding service for thick-wall cosmetic packaging is designed to meet the highest standards of surface quality, dimensional accuracy, and production efficiency. By combining a hot runner system with a 1×4 cavity configuration, hardened S136 steel, and mirror polish finish, we ensure your cosmetic packaging components achieve a flawless, high-gloss appearance while maintaining structural integrity. With a factory spanning 1,000–3,000 m² and a skilled team of 51–100 employees, we are equipped to handle complex projects with consistent quality.
Product Features & Technical Specifications
- Hot Runner System: Provides uniform melt flow and reduces cycle time, minimizing material waste and enabling faster production for thick-wall parts.
- 1×4 Cavity Design: Balances production output with mold complexity, offering four identical cavities per cycle for efficient manufacturing of cosmetic packaging components.
- Hardened S136 Steel: A premium corrosion-resistant steel with high hardness (48–52 HRC), ensuring long mold life and excellent dimensional stability under repeated injection cycles.
- Mirror Polish Finish: Achieves SPI A1 mirror surface (Ra ≤ 0.05 μm), essential for high-gloss cosmetic packaging that reflects brand quality.
- Thick-Wall Capability: Designed to handle wall thicknesses up to 8 mm or more, with optimized cooling channels to prevent sink marks and warpage.
- Customizable Gate Design: Options for pinpoint, submarine, or valve gates to suit specific cosmetic packaging geometry and aesthetic requirements.
- Precision Machining: CNC milling, EDM, and wire cutting tolerances within ±0.01 mm, ensuring tight shutoffs and consistent part dimensions.

Key Advantages for Cosmetic Packaging Molds
- Reduced Defects: Hot runner eliminates cold slug and reduces shear stress, resulting in fewer flow lines and weld lines on thick-wall cosmetic components.
- Enhanced Surface Brilliance: Mirror-polished cavities produce parts with a glass-like finish, eliminating the need for secondary painting or coating in many cosmetic designs.
- Longer Tool Life: Hardened S136 withstands high injection pressure and abrasive fillers (e.g., glass fiber, pigments) common in cosmetic resins, extending mold maintenance intervals.
- Cost-Efficient Mid-Volume Production: 1×4 cavity configuration offers a practical balance for annual volumes of 200,000–1,000,000 parts, with lower tooling investment compared to 8- or 16-cavity molds.
- Fast Lead Times: Our experienced engineering team can complete a complex thick-wall cosmetic mold within 30–45 days, depending on design complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for this mold?
A: For custom molds, we typically require one mold as the minimum. However, we can also discuss multi-cavity variants based on your volume needs. -
Q: How long does it take to manufacture a thick-wall cosmetic packaging mold?
A: Lead time is approximately 30–45 working days, depending on design complexity and polishing requirements. Rush options are available upon request. -
Q: Can you provide sample parts before mass production?
A: Yes. We will run trial shots and send you samples for approval. T0 samples are usually available within 20–25 days after design finalization. -
Q: What materials can be used with this mold? Are recycled resins supported?
A: The hardened S136 mold is compatible with a wide range of thermoplastics, including PP, ABS, PETG, acrylic, and recycled blends. Hot runner systems can be optimized for specific melt indices. -
Q: Do you offer mold trial reports and maintenance services?
A: Absolutely. We provide a detailed trial report with dimensions, cycle data, and part quality analysis. We also offer remote troubleshooting and spare parts for long-term support. -
Q: What is the maximum wall thickness this mold can produce?
A: Our design can accommodate wall thicknesses up to 10 mm. For thicker sections, we incorporate conformal cooling channels to ensure uniform cooling and reduce cycle time. -
Q: Is the mirror polish finish resistant to wear during production?
A: Yes. Hardened S136 combined with precise polishing maintains its surface integrity for hundreds of thousands of cycles. Regular maintenance will extend the polish life further. -
Q: Can you modify cavity count or add more cavities later?
A: We can design the mold base with future expansion in mind. An add-on cavity insert is possible, but it's more cost-effective to select the final cavity count at the design stage.
