Are You Working With the Right Custom Plastic Tubing Company?

When you are looking for the right custom plastic tubing company for your projects, it can be difficult to know exactly what to look for. From the types of plastics they work with to their capabilities and expertise, our team has outlined the questions you should be asking in your search.

What Capabilities Do They Have?

One of the first questions you should ask a potential custom plastic tubing company is about their capabilities. The right partner for your projects will have all of the capabilities needed to get the job done so you don’t have to spend time or money finding a second manufacturer to complete certain aspects of the project. Not only should your manufacturer be able to create your product, but they should also be able to help with tooling and assembly or finishing services.

At Custom Profile, our team has the capabilities needed to complete your project from start to finish. Our extensive custom plastic tubing capabilities include:

Tooling

With our in-house plastic extrusion tooling development centers, we can help you design and create all of the tooling needed for your plastic tubing projects. We use state-of-the-art CNC and wire EDM technology combined with experienced team members and the best quality materials to manufacture the tubing dies needed for your project.

Tubing Extrusion

Our tubing extrusion capabilities allow us to create a wide range of custom plastic tubing for many industries. We can manufacture custom tubing from ⅛ inch to 3 inches in width from rigid, semi-rigid, and flexible materials.

In-Line Operations

Our team also offers integrated value-add operations to ensure your tubing has a high-quality look and feel. All of these operations are performed during the extrusion process, reducing the labor and time needed to complete your products.

Assembly and Finishing

We also offer high-volume finishing and assembly services. This includes custom packaging and kitting for any projects you may need assistance with.

What Plastics Do They Work With?

It is likely that you have an idea of what properties your custom plastic tubing needs, which will influence the type of plastic used to create your tubing. Not only should your custom plastic tubing company be able to help match you with the right plastic to meet all of the specifications of your project, but they should also have a wide range of options.

At Custom Profile, our team works with over 400 different polymer grades and, with our expertise, we can help you determine which is best for the needs of your application. Additionally, if some crucial properties are missing from your chosen polymer, we have the ability to create compounds so you don’t have to compromise. Plus, if you are looking for a specific polymer color, we have color matching capabilities to make it happen.

What Experience Do They Have?

An experienced custom plastic tubing company will be able to produce higher-quality products for your applications. The right company for you will also have extensive experience in your specific industry.

When you partner with Custom Profile, you can rest assured that we have the experience to get the job done. Not only do we have over 30 years of experience creating high-quality custom tubing solutions, but we also have experience in a wide variety of industries. Some of the industries we serve include construction, doors and windows, garage doors, commercial refrigeration, appliances, renewable energy, medical, office furniture, lighting, and more.
