Full-service plastic contract manufacturing facility with thermoforming machines and CNC equipment

Our Plastic Contract Manufacturing Services

Comprehensive plastic production capabilities from prototype tooling and design through high-volume thermoforming and precision CNC fabrication.

Thermoforming & Vacuum Forming

Custom thermoforming and vacuum forming using eight machines ranging from 2'x3' to 5'x9'. Supports ABS, HDPE, PETG, KYDEX, and more for enclosures, OEM parts, trays, and industrial applications at any volume.

Plastic Fabrication

Expert fabrication of custom POP displays, industrial parts, and secondary trim operations. Services include precision drilling, heat bending, bonding, fastener installation, and edge finishing to exact drawing specifications.

CNC Trimming & Cutting

Precision CNC trimming and cutting using two 5'x10' trimming centers and automated router equipment. Delivers clean edges, dimensional accuracy, and repeatable quality for contour cutting and assembly-ready parts.

Mold Making & Tooling

Custom molds and tooling from wood, polyurethane, and aluminum for prototypes through production. Includes CNC-milled master patterns, drill fixtures, trim fixtures, and threaded insert tooling.

Prototyping

Rapid prototypes from low-cost wood or polyurethane tooling, typically produced in just a few weeks. Perfect for design review, fit and function evaluation, and pre-production validation before committing to aluminum tooling.

Product Design & Material Selection

Hands-on engineering support from Brad and Cody Hill to guide material selection—evaluating cost, impact resistance, durability, and chemical resistance—and tooling design for a turnkey solution from concept to finished part.
