Plastic Injection Molded Button Factories

Factories manufacturing injection molded plastic buttons — high-volume, color-matched buttons in polyester, ABS and other molding resins.

This directory is for clothing manufacturers searching for plastic button factories to supply injection molded buttons for the garments they produce. Injection molding forces molten resin into precision molds, producing buttons by the thousand with consistent size, color and finish.

Molded plastic is the volume end of the button trade: shirt buttons by the million, color-matched buttons for uniforms and workwear, and custom-molded shapes and logos that would be uneconomical in any other material.

02 · BackgroundAbout Injection Molded Buttons

Common molding resins include polyester, ABS and nylon, chosen for toughness, dyeability and cost. A custom design begins with a mold — a one-time tooling investment that then produces buttons at very low unit cost — while stock molds cover the standard sew-through styles in the full ligne range.

The factory listed here manufactures plastic buttons by injection molding, and also produces natural buttons; for molded buttons in urea resin specifically, see the Urea Button Factories page, and for polyester button specialists, the Button Factories index links the wider family.

QuestionsCommon Questions

What is the advantage of injection molded buttons?

Consistency and cost at volume. Every button from a mold is identical in size, shape and color, and unit costs fall sharply on long runs — the natural choice for uniforms, workwear and mass-market apparel.

Can a molded button carry our logo?

Yes. The logo is cut into the mold itself, so every button carries it in relief. Laser engraving is the alternative when runs are shorter or artwork changes often.

How are plastic buttons colored?

Resin can be colored before molding for through-color buttons, or molded buttons can be dyed or surface-finished after molding. Through-color hides chips and scratches best.
