Whether your project needs are for a few hundred parts quickly or millions of parts over a long period of time, we'll have the right injection molding solution for you. These parts can range in complexity and can be made from virtually any manufacturing material. Although injection molding is most popular, Solid Concepts excels in a variety of injection molding processes including compression molding, insert over molding, gas assist molding, die casting of metals, thermoforming, plastic extrusions, sheet metal, assembly and packaging. In addition, Solid Concepts offers post molding services, such as pad printing, silk screening, painting, EMI shielding and plating.

Our Tooling and Molding team is based out of Tempe, Arizona, and has over 100 years combined experience in all phases of tooling and molding. We are confident that our exceptional lead times, proven quality, full-service manufacturing solutions, offshore pricing, and U.S. based project management and ownership will suit your molding needs.
