In molding bonded plastics material, in particular expanded or foamable polystyrene in combination with rigid sheet polystyrene, the rigid material (2) is firstly preformed in a preforming mold (33, 36) while simultaneously separating by a cutter (40) the preformed portion from the rigid sheet of starting material, the preformed portion is transferred (27) to the molding stage (3) while contained in a preforming half-mold (33), foamable material (44) is fed to and is molded onto the preformed portion with sintering and the pulse action of steam (45), and the molded portion (P) is discharged (6). The preforming half-mold (33) is moved alternately between the preforming position (1) and the molding position (3), and cooperates with respective counter-molds (36,41). The scrap is recovered without being involved in the molding stage.
