In all design projects, problems will arise. That’s why we are readily available to help you out. Our lead sales engineer has extensive knowledge in the plastics industry with over 35 years of experience in product and tool design, and material selection. We can advise and help you overcome any design challenge that may emerge with your product or your tool.
