Custom Plastic Technical Parts
Do You Have A Project We Can Help With?
Custom Enclosures
A custom plastic enclosure provides the distinction and quality that your product deserves. We use direct-to-substrate digital printing that puts your custom graphics and labeling directly onto your enclosure. You can have a fully customized plastic enclosure with minimal development costs, unparalleled quality, and unrivaled service and support. Don’t settle for a mass-produced plastic box that forces you to compromise your design and part selection, get a free quote today…Custom Enclosures Made Quickly to Your Requirements...
Our process offers a more cost effective solution than injection molding for relatively low-volume products. It delivers more appealing product than sheet metal forming. We offer a level of flexibility in design and product evolution that is simply without equal. Our process makes iterative product development a reality by making minor changes to dimension, feature placement, and branding quick and cost effective. We never charge for simple changes and encourage our customers to innovate.

We never stand in the way of the changes our customers need to make to improve products and be successful. If design flexibility and time-to-market are critical, we are here to help.
Custom Plastic Parts & Enclosures Fast & Simple!
From Concept to Production in Less than a Month!
Design Process
Our experienced product designers start the process by contacting you to discuss the project. Based on your specifications they will create a CAD model and e-mail you an easy-to-view 3-D animation of your product. Once the design is approved by you, we will process a prototype for testing and evaluation. All parts are cut on high-speed CNC routers, thermo-folded and then “clicked” together or solvent welded in assembly. Tongue and groove joints make for a clean, tight fit. Since the prototype is made using the very same steps that our production parts go through, we are ready for production when you are.
Materials
We use thermoplastic materials, predominantly multi-purpose ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), PC (Polycarbonate), PETG, and Acrylic. Our solid colors come with a lightly textured finish that hides scratches and minimizes reflection, yet is smooth enough for clean printing results. Our clear and translucent materials are available in smooth polished, non-glare, or frosted finishes.
Mounting of Internal Components
CNC-machined recesses ensure accurate positioning of standoffs and mounting clips, which are then solvent welded into place. Where necessary, inserts are heat-staked into their pilot holes. We recommend our plastic-specific self-threading PLASTITE screws since they offer more holding power at a lower cost than conventional fasteners.
EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) Shielding
This optional shielding offers protection that rivals that of metal sheets. A conductive coating is applied to the plastic sheets prior to processing. This is far more cost effective than the post-molding, masking and coating process required to accomplish the same for injection molded parts.
Digital Full-Color Printing
- Our digital flat-bed printer allows for photo-quality printing of your company’s logo and markings on the finished product. The UV-cured ink is extremely wear resistant and will not fade.
No painting required:
- Our process does not require any coatings or finishing operations – a major cost reduction compared to sheet metal parts.

- Competitive Advantages
- Our parts are a close match to injection molded parts in appearance, finish and durability. Compared to sheet metal parts they offer more design options, less weight and eliminate the need for paint or powder coating processes.
- Economical for short runs of 1-10,000 pieces
- Design changes can be made quickly at minimal cost
No capital intensive molds, fixtures, or dies - No setups, quick turnaround & just-in-time delivery
Appealing appearance, material & printing options - No mold-related restrictions (drafts, undercuts etc.)
Stronger than molded parts (thicker walls) - Less weight than sheet metal parts
No paint or corrosion issues - Our manufacturing facility is ISO 9001:2015 certified and can design and manufacture enclosures to almost any NEMA specification.
