General Info:

The Step2 Company s products are made using rotational molding, a process that company founder Tom Murdough pioneered for use in the consumer products market. The company is a multinational manufacturer and marketer of plastic products for children and the home and garden. In rotational molding, ground polyethylene powder is poured into molds, which are then bolted closed. Mounted on a machine with four large arms, the molds rotate slowly while they move through an oven and two cooling chambers. The plastic powder melts, forms itself into the shape of the mold and then hardens as it cools. When the molds return to the starting position, workers remove the finished products, trim the seams formed by the two halves of the mold, fasten necessary hardware and component parts onto the product and package it for the consumer. Headquartered in Streetsboro, Ohio, Thomas G. Murdough Jr. launched The Step2 Company in 1991.
