Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) is a manufacturing process where a material is simultaneously subjected to high temperature and uniform pressure from all directions (isostatic pressure) to eliminate internal voids, increase density, and improve the mechanical properties of the material, typically used on metals and ceramics; essentially, it "sintering" the material under high pressure and heat to achieve near-theoretical density.

The key difference between hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and cold isostatic pressing (CIP) is the temperature at which the process occurs: HIP is performed at elevated temperatures, allowing for full consolidation of materials and improved properties, while CIP happens at ambient temperature, primarily used for compacting powder into a "green" part before further processing; both methods apply uniform pressure from all directions using a fluid medium to achieve near-net shape components.
