For companies looking for affordable plastic injection molding in Portland, we offer a personalized approach so you can get the right part at the right price. Let’s explore our process.
You Show Us the Details
When you request a quote from our team, we will work with you to make sure we have all the information and documentation we need to get started. We’ll look at your engineered drawings and a prototype of your part (if they’re available), and we’ll explore your timeline and expectations.
Once we have everything we need, we’ll provide an initial estimate of the tooling costs for the project and the expected per-unit cost.
We Review and Adapt
Once you accept our estimate, we’ll work with our expert mold builders to review the documentation and make any necessary tweaks to the design. We will make sure the part is both moldable with our production processes and in line with your expectations before we start designing the mold.
You Receive Product Samples
We will create a mold design based on the drawings you provide and then send you some initial samples from T-1 testing to approve. Once you’ve signed off on the sample, we will complete the final polishing and texturing on the mold before preparing it for shipping.
We Produce Your Parts
Upon receiving the final mold, our staff will disassemble, inspect, and regrease it for final testing. Our team will also send you a sample for final approval before launching into full production.
How Much Does Plastic Injection Molding Cost?
The cost of each plastic injection molding project varies depending on many factors, such as:
- Size: The size of the individual parts, including how much material they use, plays a major role in the total cost. For instance, smaller parts use less material and take less time to make, and therefore would likely cost less than larger parts.
- Output quantity: Unlike larger plastic manufacturers in the Portland area, we’re willing to take on small orders or even single parts. However, large orders typically mean a lower per-unit cost.
- Complexity: More intricate parts that require multiple molding cavities, lifters, sliders, or hot runners will add additional costs to the project.
Why Choose Tamarack?
We’re Local
Since we’re based in Yakima, WA, only about four hours away from Portland, we can deliver your custom-molded parts to you faster than a company in another country could. This means your business can keep going without having to wait weeks for parts to arrive, which leads to fewer disruptions overall.
Even better, since we’re so close to you, your company will enjoy a reduced carbon footprint compared to having your parts shipped from another part of the U.S. or from overseas.
Whether you’re developing an entirely new product or you want us to replicate an existing design, we’re happy to collaborate with other businesses based in the Pacific Northwest.
We’re Committed to the Environment
Tamarack Industries is committed to protecting the environment at a company-wide level. Ecological stewardship is entwined with every aspect of our business.
We use a wide range of plastic types in our manufacturing process, including HDPE, PP, ABS, nylon, and acetyl. These plastics require less energy to produce than other materials and create fewer emissions. We also strive to use recycled materials whenever possible in our products.
All our products are made in the U.S., which lowers our carbon footprint even more. You won’t have to worry about container ships polluting the oceans and air with fuel as we deliver your products.
