Custom work is about getting a specific part exactly right — often a one-off, prototype, or small batch where the design may still be evolving. Tooling costs are lower, but the per-unit cost is higher, which makes sense at small volumes.
Bulk Vacuum Forming
Once a design is finalised and the volume justifies it, bulk production brings the per-unit cost down significantly, using tooling optimised for repeat runs rather than one-off flexibility.
Choosing Between Them
The right choice usually comes down to volume and how settled the design is — early-stage or low-volume projects suit custom runs, while proven designs at higher volumes benefit from bulk production.
