Volume drives tooling
Low runs suit simple compression tools. As volumes grow, injection tools pay back through faster cycles.

What shape is the part?
Does it bond to another part?
How fine is the detail?
Routes to look at
A starting point. The right route also depends on the material, tolerances and cost of tooling, which we talk through with you.
Talk it throughHow it works
Getting the most from it.
Shape matters
Very fine detail and thin walls flow best as liquid silicone. Thick parts often suit compression.
Bonding is its own route
Silicone moulded onto plastic or metal needs overmoulding tooling and the right primer or grade.
