Living Hinges & Flex Hinges
Plastic Living Hinges (Flex Hinges)
Jifram can be your plastic hinge manufacturer. Jifram’s living (flex) hinge designs are co-extruded using polyurethane or FPVC and bonded to high impact PVC. Because of this, our RPVC living hinges, acting as mechanical hinges, are engineered and manufactured to provide almost unlimited open-close cycles — and they always return to their original position.
As a supplier to the POP Industry for over 40 years, manufacturing living hinges is a CORE competency of ours! Our hinges have been field tested, quality-approved, and are available in many sizes, shapes, and configurations.
