Pilot Lab

The dedicated pilot lab area provides a small-scale facility within our main manufacturing location that supports full product development, allowing testing of new processes, technologies and products.

A multi-disciplinary R & D team will support your initiatives aimed at concept testing in order to fully vet concepts and make them market ready. 

Within the walls of the pilot lab we will run your small batch extrusion trials and then scale them to production level runs. Simultaneously, if needed, we will explore and evaluate alternative processing techniques to arrive at the perfect solution. This will all be accomplished under one roof as we further create samples to evaluate the progress of the product development efforts.
