Unmatched Expertise in Thermoforming
Backed by over four decades of product manufacturing in thermoforming, our dedicated team possesses the expertise and skills necessary to bring your ideas from mere concepts to tangible realities. We stand out for our ability to design, engineer, and produce custom thermoformed plastic solutions that not only meet but often exceed the precise specifications of our clients.
Streamlined Prototype Development
Understanding the unique challenges aftermarket companies face, particularly concerning relatively small product volumes, we prioritize efficient prototype development to ensure your profitability remains intact. Unlike traditional forming processes like steel stamping or plastic injection molding, our thermoforming method enables us to swiftly create prototypes, offering flexibility in material selection for testing and product evaluation. Additionally, with a solid model, we can even provide scaled 3D-printed versions of your part design for preliminary discussions on product functionality and cost.
Affordable Solutions Tailored to Your Needs
Cost-effectiveness is at the core of our thermoforming process, offering a significant advantage over other plastic manufacturing startup investments. We recognize the importance of maintaining a healthy bottom line, which is why we provide plastic parts with lower tooling costs and minimum quantity runs, ensuring you get the components you need without exceeding your budgetary constraints.
Durability Meets Style
Our custom thermoformed plastic parts not only boast stylish aesthetics but also unparalleled durability. Whether you require interior components such as instrument panels, door panels, partitions, and headliners, or exterior elements like fenders, bumpers, wheel skirts, housings, and shrouds, our engineering team can recommend materials perfectly suited for your application.
Versatility in Aftermarket Part Manufacturing
Thermoform manufacturing, also known as thermoforming or vacuum forming, represents a highly versatile process that we've perfected over the years. Leveraging various grades, thicknesses, textures, and colors of flat sheet stock materials, we can produce a wide array of parts and products trusted by manufacturers across diverse industries.
Common aftermarket parts currently utilizing vacuum forming include:
- Bug and side window deflectors
- Fender flares
- Bed and tailgate liners
- Floor mats
- Scoops and louvers
- Vehicle ground effects
- Gauge clusters
- Light housings
- License plate covers
