The thought of custom manufacturing can make anyone fear for their bottom line. Rest assured, though, custom plastics manufacturing can be much more affordable than you might expect.
Custom plastics manufacturing, like any custom manufacturing, involves making parts or products designed and created to precisely and accurately match your exact specifications. We work closely with you at every step of the process, from design and prototyping to testing, production, and any value-added services you select.
While many elements such as labor, inspection, testing, shipping, and others contribute to any part production costs, some are specific to custom plastics manufacturing, including:
Mold Costs
Generally the most expensive component of production, mold costs are also one of the most variable factors. Mold complexity, the number of parts which can be produced per cycle, and other design concerns can have the greatest effect on costs.
Materials
Your resin selection and any additives your project requires will factor into your final costs. Inexpensive, so-called commodity resins will be much more affordable than the next step up, engineering resins. Highly specialized resins designed for extreme conditions such as aerospace and military applications will generally cost the most.
Finishing
If your product requires additional steps after molding, such as assembly, printing, or packaging, costs will also be higher.
Our team of experts has decades of experience with a wide variety of custom plastics manufacturing. We will work with you to explore the full range of design and production options to accurately create your part or product in the most cost-effective way possible.
