The invention relates to a method for joining two plastics elements to form a component, wherein a second plastics element is joined to a first plastics element by moulding-on in a primary forming process or forming process, said method comprising the following steps: (a) inserting the first plastics element into a mould, wherein the first plastics element contains at least one thermoplastic as matrix material, (b) introducing a plastics moulding composition into the mould for moulding the second plastics element, wherein the plastics moulding composition contains at least one thermoplastic having reactive groups or a mixture of at least one thermoplastic and a material having reactive groups which react chemically with reactive groups of the thermoplastic of the first plastics element.
