The process begins with Flow-Rite’s experienced staff who understand communication is key to a successful project. From ideation to production to shipping, the client is kept informed to be confident that parts will arrive on time and their product quotas met.

Onsite engineers and technicians work with the client to create the ideal mold for the project, whether it’s single or multiple cavity, or family injected design. Flow-Rite manufactures to ISO 9001 standards, so it understands quality and precision. It has machining capabilities with accuracy down to 0.001″. Its 14 state-of-the-art injection molding presses range from 60 to 850 tons of clamping pressure and accept nearly all plastic materials.
