Molding Processes

We offer up front design support when you are developing an OEM prototype. We appreciate a challenge and when you involve us early, we can make suggestions regarding the part design that make it easier and less expensive to manufacture. Our goal is to supply a well-designed, functional product that meets your expectations. We can also assist with re-engineering your part and correcting any performance issues you are experiencing.

We do not sell items out of a catalog. Instead, we use our process expertise and deep polymer chemistry knowledge to develop a unique component for your application.
