    MY YARD White HIPS Sheets

    Durable, easy-to-form white HIPS sheets that hold fine detail and can be coloured or painted after forming. The all-rounder for moulds, masks, props and models.

    High impact polystyrene (HIPS) offers excellent forming detail and dimensional stability. These sheets need no pre-heating, have no release agent on the surface and can be coloured or painted after forming.

    HIPS is the sheet included with every FORMART machine, and the one to start with when you are learning to vacuum form over 3D prints.

    Which FORMART does each pack fit?

    Pack Fits Notes
    0.5 mm · 300 × 205 mm · 30-pack FORMART S FORMART SE and FORMART 2 with the included size-switching kit
    0.5 mm · 500 × 300 mm · 30-pack FORMART SE, FORMART 2 Does not fit FORMART S
    1.0 mm · 500 × 300 mm · 15-pack FORMART SE, FORMART 2 Does not fit FORMART S

    300 × 205 mm (A4-size) packs are the FORMART S size and also fit the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 via their size-switching kit. 500 × 300 mm packs use the full format of the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 and are too large for the FORMART S.

    Typical Uses

    • Mould making and soap moulds
    • Masks and cosplay props
    • Model accessories and static model parts
    • Creative light cases

    Using it with 3D-printed moulds

    HIPS reproduces the detail of a 3D-printed master clearly and is easy to trim and paint, which makes it popular for cosplay armour, masks and display pieces. Add a draft angle above 3° and 1.5–2 mm vent holes in deep recesses for crisp results.

    Questions About White HIPS Sheets

    Is HIPS or PET better for vacuum forming?

    Choose HIPS for opaque parts you want to paint, such as masks, props, models and moulds, and for its easy forming without pre-heating. Choose PET when you need a transparent part, such as chocolate moulds or clear packaging.

    Which pack fits my FORMART?

    The 300 × 205 mm pack fits the FORMART S, and the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 with their size-switching kit. The 500 × 300 mm packs fit the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 only.

    Can I paint HIPS after forming?

    Yes. The sheets have no release agent on the surface and can be coloured or painted after forming.
