As inherent problem solvers, we help connect
the dots between material, color, design, and
manufacturing through a full suite of industrial,
material, component, mold and process design
capabilities.
Industrial Design
• Research methodologies
• Brainstorming/problem solving
• Concept sketching
• Ergonomic development
• 3D CAD modeling
• Photo rendering & 3D prototyping
• Color, material, & finish selection
• Design for manufacturing
Part/Tool/Process Design Optimization
Prototype Capabilities
• Over 10 injection molding machines ranging from
50–550 tons:
- Customer prototype molding
- Materials sampling and evaluation
• Fully automated continuous fiber reinforced
thermoplastic (CFRTP) injection-overmolding cell

Colorants added in the mixing
phase of the manufacturing process can generate transparent, translucent or
opaque colors.
Liquid colorants will produce transparent,
translucent and tinted color.
Solid colorants are better for generating
highly opaque colors—including metallic, pearlescent and glow-in-the-
dark colors—or patterns and effects, like marbling, wood or camouflage.
