Process Control & Consistency

Fully programmable controls and design engineering focused on part-to-part consistency keep production repeatable. Cleanroom production and validated processes support the quality your products require.

Tool Design & Engineering

Extrusion Blow Molding (EBM)

Air is blown into an extruded tube of plastic inside the mold, forming bottles and hollow containers.

Strategic Tooling Partnerships

Injection Blow Molding (IBM)

Injection-molded preforms are inflated in a closed mold for precise, consistent small containers and vials.

On-Site Machining Support

Injection Stretch Blow Molding (ISBM)

Preforms are stretched and blown for strong, clear containers with rotational symmetry.

Prototype Development

Prototype parts produced with blow molding processes prove part function before commercial production.

Blow molding is just one part of a connected program.
