We Specialize in Release Agents

Since 1942, Stoner Molding Solutions has been known for superior performance and consistent quality. Molders have come to rely on Stoner’s world class service and expert solutions for the challenges facing their business.

Today, Stoner’s brand portfolio offers solutions for any molding process. If you can mold it, we can release it. Stoner manufactures molding solutions for the thermoplastics, polyurethanes, composites, rotational, rubber, fiber, and investment casting industries.

Stoner release agents yield better performance than any competitive product. If you have not experienced the Stoner difference, please consider these reasons to switch. With Stoner, your cost per released part will be lower than any competitive product, so you’ll get “More Parts in Less Time.”
