The invention relates to a hybrid process for producing moulded plastic articles having walls that are reinforced with the injection of foamed thermoplastic, thereby increasing the thickness of said walls in predetermined areas in order to improve the mechanical characteristics thereof. According to the invention, the hybrid process involves reinforcing predetermined areas of plastic articles formed using any known process, such as injection moulding, extrusion moulding, extrusion-blow moulding, injection-blow moulding, thermoforming, rotational moulding or a combination of same, with the subsequent injection of a foamable thermoplastic material in order to fill the predetermined reinforcement areas. |
