Thermoforming:
Low cost, excellent detail and fast turnaround make it the perfect alternative.
Great looking part. The corners and edges are crisp and precise... the detail is flawless... the surface texture and color are just as they should be. Must be injection molded... right?
Wrong.
Many of today's thermoformed parts look so much like injection molded parts, only the molder and your accountant know for sure. Thermoforming, in its several variations, has actually become the preferred alternative to injection molding in certain circumstances. It has also become a cost effective, environmentally friendly option to some parts currently made of wood, cardboard or metal. For short to medium size production runs... for very large parts... when tooling costs must be held to a minimum or when fast turnaround time is essential... thermoforming could be the most logical choice.
Grimm Brothers is a thermoforming specialist. We offer several high quality, cost efficient options to the excessively high startup costs and the protracted tooling-to-market time usually associated with traditional injection molding. Whether your need is for large, heavy gauge components with flat surfaces, high tensile strength and specific external textures... or small, delicate parts with refined details and a smooth surface... we can work with you from design to final process to deliver your project on time, within your budget and faithful to your most exacting specifications.
