What Is It?
NEXXALAC™ Unfilled ABS Compound, the same general-purpose grade used across consumer electronics housings.
How It's Manufactured
ABS is compounded with color and stabilizer additives on a standard twin-screw line and pelletized for injection molding.
Manufacturing Process for This Application
A remote housing is a thin-walled, handheld shell molded in two halves that snap or screw together around a PCB and battery compartment — surface gloss and consistent wall thickness for a comfortable, good-looking grip are the main mold-design priorities.
Why Polymer Choice Matters Here
A remote is dropped often and handled daily, so a brittle or low-gloss polymer fails on durability and shelf appeal simultaneously — ABS's balance of impact strength and surface finish avoids both failure modes without needing reinforcement this lightweight, low-load part does not benefit from.
Why This Compound Is Suited
ABS's high rigidity, gloss, and impact strength are exactly why "TV / LED/ LCD Remotes" is one of its explicitly listed applications.
Nexxa Compounds is a leading manufacturer of ABS compounds for tv remote control housing applications in India, supplying some of the largest manufacturers across India and internationally.
