Exceptional Reliability

Our in-house tool and die makers manufacture and maintain all of our production components. By keeping a close eye on our tooling we are able to detect wear and damage earlier which allows for enough time to address the issue. Having this level of control over our tooling allows for repeatable production of quality components.

Added Value for Plastic Tubes

From drilling, notching, and chamfering to tape and Velcro application, we offer a number of in-line and off-line finishing processes. Our capabilities are limitless and by utilizing our fabrication services you can eliminate the need to go to a third party or do the work yourself. We can meet your most specific product requirements.

What is Co-Extrusion?

Co-Extrusion is the process of extruding a product composed of two or more thermoplastics. It allows for a product to have unique characteristics such as color striping, half-circumference coloration, total encapsulation, or multiple-durometers. This process can be applied to both tubing and profile extrusions to create half-white, half-clear shields for the lighting industry, narrow windows for viewing protected products, or grippers and living hinges for flexible applications.

When there are special requirements regarding a product’s appearance or material makeup, a co-extrusion can be the ideal solution.
