From initial design to full production, our team of experts can solve nearly any assembly problem while creating products that meet our customers’ most challenging requirements and specifications.

We lead the industry in advanced high-volume graphic overlay processing. Our high-speed, fully automated screen printing equipment combines extreme operational efficiency with the industry’s tightest tolerances. In addition to graphic design assistance, we also provide engineering technical support, gradient screen printing, and embossing. Rapid and production-quality prototyping is available as well, along with a broad array of design and assembly options. We work with high-quality, versatile materials that include polyester, polycarbonate, and polyester/polycarbonate blends.

Our molding facilities in Asia have been providing customers with some of the best design and manufacturing capabilities available since the 1980s. These include rubber keypads with a 3D aesthetic look and feel, as well as switch assemblies with customizable actuation forces. Our rubber keypads utilize electrical contact systems that range from carbon and gold pills to actuating tactile metal domes.

We also provide a number of user-specific features for our rubber keypads and graphic overlays. Some of these include backlighting by LEDs and custom light guides, polyester or polycarbonate films with hard coating or surface texturing, and insert molded LED windows.
