Custom silicone molding for products and components developed from drawings, CAD files, physical samples or new product concepts. We support geometry review, material and hardness selection, tooling, sampling, production and quality control for OEM/ODM silicone projects.
Product development and dedicated tooling around your application.
Quality control, assembly, packaging and shipment coordination.
WHAT MOLDING SUPPORTS
Capability directions for molded silicone products and components.
Complete molded silicone products developed around specific shapes, functions and brand requirements.
Silicone components developed around product dimensions, fit and functional requirements.
Covers, boots, pads and protective molded structures for consumer and technical applications.
Products requiring grip, flexibility, comfort or controlled surface feel.
Logos, textures, ribs, channels and other molded details incorporated into the part geometry.
Approved molded products produced against confirmed samples and specifications for repeat programs.
PROJECT INPUTS
Custom molding projects may begin from a drawing, CAD file, physical sample, existing product or product concept. The available project information is reviewed before tooling to identify geometry, material, hardness, tolerance and manufacturing requirements.
Sketches or 2D drawings with key dimensions and sections.
CAD files for precise geometry and interface development.
An existing part used as the dimensional and functional reference.
The product the silicone part must fit or protect.
Key measurements can be enough to scope the molding approach.
Photos or renderings that show the intended shape and features.
Sealing, grip, protection or contact function defined per use.
Market and use context reviewed for material and finish requirements.
MATERIAL & HARDNESS
Silicone material and hardness are selected according to product function, flexibility, surface feel, environment and applicable market requirements.
Grade reviewed for the product function and environment.
Hardness selected and confirmed on samples.
Flexibility balanced against structure and function.
Tear behavior reviewed for the intended use.
Color matched to confirmed references.
Surface feel tuned for grip, contact and appearance.
Reviewed for applicable products and markets.
Material selection reviewed for skin-contact products.
DESIGN FOR MOLDING
These details are reviewed before mold development to reduce avoidable tooling revisions and production issues.
Geometry reviewed for moldability and function.
Wall sections planned for filling, strength and feel.
Draft angles planned for clean demolding.
Parting line placement agreed before tooling.
Flash allowance and trimming reviewed per surface.
Undercuts reviewed for release or side-action needs.
Logos and surface details planned into the geometry.
Tolerances agreed before mold making.
COLOR & SURFACE
Color and surface requirements should be confirmed during sampling before production approval.
Color matched against confirmed Pantone references.
Matte finish reviewed for look and feel.
Gloss finish reviewed for look and feel.
Molded textures planned into the part geometry.
Raised logo details molded into the surface.
Recessed logo details molded into the surface.
Printed decoration reviewed per surface and design.
Multi-color molding planned around color zones.
TOOLING & SAMPLING
Each step is confirmed per project. Dedicated tooling and sampling support is described on the Tooling & Sampling capability page.
The drawing, sample or concept is reviewed for scope.
Mold structure and parting direction are reviewed.
Tooling is built around the confirmed design.
First samples are molded from the new tool.
Samples are checked for dimensions and function.
Color and surface finish are confirmed on samples.
The approved sample becomes the production reference.
PRODUCTION
Production follows the approved sample and confirmed project specifications.
Material is prepared and colored per the confirmed specification.
Parts are molded per the agreed process.
Parts are removed and handled per the agreed method.
Flash is trimmed and surfaces finished per the agreed criteria.
Parts are checked against the approved sample.
Multi-part products assembled per project scope.
Parts packed per the agreed specification.

IS IT A GOOD FIT
Typical situations where custom molding is the right approach.
You need a custom shape that does not exist as a standard product.
The silicone part must fit an existing product or interface.
Hardness, color or surface finish must be customized.
The design includes molded logos, textures or functional features.
You need repeat OEM/ODM production based on an approved sample.
