Custom Molding

We employ compression, transfer, and injection molding to ensure a perfect match to customer specifications. We work with an array of natural and synthetic compounds, including flame-retardant, food-safe, and high temperature. Common materials include Butyl, EPDM, Fluoroelastomers, Neoprene, Nitrile, SBR, Silicone, FKM, Sponge, and more.

Molding Processes

Compression Molding

Ideal for larger parts and simple geometries with excellent material utilization.

  • Cost-effective for large parts
  • Minimal material waste
  • Good for thick-walled products
  • Excellent surface finish
Transfer Molding

Perfect for complex geometries and parts requiring tight tolerances.

  • Complex part geometries
  • Tight dimensional tolerances
  • Multiple cavity capability
  • Consistent part quality
Injection Molding

High-volume production with exceptional precision and repeatability.

  • High production volumes
  • Exceptional precision
  • Fast cycle times
  • Automated production
