| Elastomer Compression Molding |
| Compression molding can be used to create buttons, keypads, gaskets and a wide range of other components for user interfaces and assemblies. With the addition of offshore compression molding facilities, GM Nameplate is uniquely positioned among molders to provide you with the quality of stateside production at significantly reduced prices. Design and prototyping can be managed from the U.S., in your language and time zone, before production quantities are transferred offshore. Once in production, you can expect the same ISO-9001 quality you receive from any of our other manufacturing facilities located across the U.S. and Canada. |
