OUR
SERVICES

Two complementary manufacturing methods. One supplier. Simplified logistics for your project.

01

3D PRINTING

From rapid prototypes to functional end-use parts. We operate FDM, SLA, and SLS printers to match your material and tolerance requirements — with no minimum order quantity.

  • FDM · SLA · SLS Technologies
  • Layer resolution from 0.05mm
  • Build envelope up to 500×500×500mm
  • Engineering & flexible filaments
  • Post-processing & finishing
  • Colour matching available
02

PU FOAM MOULDING

Polyurethane foam cast parts for cushioning, gaskets, props, ergonomic grips, packaging inserts, and custom shapes. Small batch production using silicone or 3D-printed moulds.

  • Rigid, flexible & semi-rigid foams
  • Densities from 20 to 600 kg/m³
  • Silicone & 3D-printed tooling
  • Batch sizes from 1 to 500 units
  • Skin-effect & open-cell options
  • Insert moulding available
03

DFM REVIEW

Design for Manufacturability review included with every order. We analyse your files and flag potential issues before production begins, saving costly reprints.

  • File analysis: STL, STEP, OBJ, 3MF
  • Wall thickness & overhang checks
  • Mould draft angle optimisation
  • Tolerance recommendations
04

FINISHING & QC

Sanding, priming, painting, vapour smoothing, and dimensional inspection. Every part ships with a quality report including measured critical dimensions.

  • Acetone vapour smoothing (ABS)
  • Sanding grades 80–2000 grit
  • RAL / Pantone colour painting
  • Caliper & CMM inspection

MADE FOR
MAKERS &
ENGINEERS

We're not a faceless online bureau. We're a small team of engineers and makers who genuinely care about your project. We communicate quickly, flag problems early, and deliver parts you'd be proud to put your name on.

FAST TURNAROUND

Standard 48–72h lead times on most FDM parts. Express 24h slots available on request. We hold stock materials for consistent quality and short lead times.

NO MINIMUMS

Order a single part or 500. Pricing scales fairly with volume — no arbitrary minimums that waste your budget.

DUAL-PROCESS EXPERTISE

Unique combination of 3D printing and PU foam moulding under one roof. Optimise each component for the right process without managing two suppliers.

ENGINEERING DIALOGUE

Every project gets a DFM review. We'll tell you if a small geometry change will save you money or improve part strength before we press print.

COMMON
QUESTIONS

We accept STL, STEP, OBJ, and 3MF files for 3D printing. For PU foam moulds, STEP or IGES is preferred for best accuracy. If you only have drawings (PDF or DXF), we can quote based on those and model the part for an additional fee.
FDM: ±0.2–0.5mm depending on geometry. SLA: ±0.1–0.2mm. SLS: ±0.3mm. PU foam casting: ±0.5–1.5mm depending on part complexity and foam density. For tight-tolerance features we recommend SLA resin or post-machining.
For simple parts, we 3D print the mould in-house, so tooling can be ready within 1–3 days. For complex geometries or high-volume runs requiring silicone moulds, allow 3–7 days for mould production before casting begins.
Yes. For 3D printed parts we offer primer + spray paint finishing to RAL or Pantone references. For PU foam, pigment is added directly to the resin mix for solid colour throughout, or skinned foams can be painted after demoulding.
Absolutely. If you supply a mould that is compatible with our casting setup (typically silicone or aluminium), we can cast PU foam parts directly. Contact us in advance to confirm compatibility.
New customers pay 100% upfront by card or bank transfer. Returning customers with a good track record can apply for 30-day net terms. All quotes are valid for 30 days and prices are fixed once an order is confirmed.
Yes. We ship across the UK, EU, and most international destinations via DHL, FedEx, and Royal Mail tracked services. Export documentation and customs paperwork are handled on request.
