What's usually vacuum formed are types of plastics that go soft when heated. You heat a sheet of plastic, put it over a mould, then create a vacuum(attach a pump) between the mould and the sheet. The vacuum will pull the plastic down onto/into the mould and keep it there until it's cooled enough to stay in the new shape.
The mould and all the other various bits of machinery needed can be made out of just about anything,
