Polymer School’s mission is to provide free technical education in plastics, tooling, hot runners, and the molding industry. Although many experienced professionals provide formal training in this field, this is the first website to offer free short video blogs on technical subjects. Topics are geared towards students in industrial technical schools and the professional community.

We believe that technical learning should be easy to access in an easy to learn format, free from excessive ads, to the point, and should be able to be applied in the real world immediately, hence our slogan “Learn. Apply.”

We are a minority-owned and small business serving the tooling community!

Hope you enjoy some of our topics, which are practical, not covered in textbooks, and sometimes hard to find answers to!

Please send your comments to krish@polymerschool.org; they will help us improve our offerings.  This journey is just a start, and many more exciting topics are planned for the future.
