Services
Custom Crates
Our engineered wood crates provide secure transport solutions for industrial equipment. Using precision manufacturing, we create custom sizes and configurations without tooling charges. These durable crates meet military and commercial shipping standards while accommodating specialized requirements for aerospace and other critical industries.
Foam Components
We produce precision-cut foam inserts using waterjet, CNC knife, and laser cutting technologies. Our foam department handles open/closed cell materials in various densities and colors, creating custom protective packaging for electronics, firearms, and medical equipment without requiring expensive molds.
Plastic Components
Our CNC routing and plastic machining services handle HDPE, UHMW, acrylic, and composite materials. We create custom plastic parts with tight tolerances using sawing, heat forming, and bonding techniques for industrial applications requiring chemical resistance and durability.
Pelican Case Inserts
We design custom foam inserts for Pelican cases to protect sensitive equipment during transport. Our solutions secure communications gear, firearms, and technical instruments using material-specific cushioning while maintaining case watertight integrity and portability.
CNC Manufacturing
Our computer numerical control systems enable tool-free fabrication of complex shapes in foam, plastic, and wood. This technology supports rapid prototyping and production runs with consistent quality, handling both one-off custom pieces and large-volume orders efficiently.
