Case Studies

Every project below started with a constraint the buyer could not solve alone. For each one we list the requirement, what changed in engineering or process, and the result the client measured after launch. Client names are withheld by agreement; descriptions are accurate and verifiable on request.

A pull-tab RFID wallet for a US accessories brand

Client goal

Launch a pull-tab wallet with RFID shielding where the tab retracts fully and stays aligned through the entire motion — a mechanism that fails in most off-the-shelf designs.

Our enablement

  • Worked from the client’s concept to fix tab length, travel and stop position before any tooling was cut.
  • Built the retraction path into the tooling instead of correcting it after the T1 sample.
  • Verified RFID shielding on the finished assembly, not on a flat material sample.

Business outcome

Delivered on schedule. The client sold more than 5,000 units in the first month after launch.

A drop-resistant slab guard for graded card collectors

Client goal

Standard acrylic slabs yellow over time and crack on impact, and impact energy is transmitted straight to the card inside. Collectors of high-value sports and trading cards needed drop resistance and UV stability without obscuring the card or its label.

Our enablement

  • Developed an impact-resistant TPU bumper guard from imported material, with a micro-airbag cushion at each corner.
  • Kept the window high-transparency so the slab and grading label stay readable.
  • Ran drop tests at 1.5 m and tracked yellowness index across a multi-year observation period.

Business outcome

The enclosed slab survived 1.5 m drop tests intact, and yellowness index stayed below 1.5 over a three-year period.

A leather-and-aluminium gift set for a corporate buyer

Client goal

Combine top-grain cowhide with CNC-machined aluminium in a single card holder, and keep it intact through shipping across climates where the two materials expand and contract at different rates.

Our enablement

  • Milled the leather recess in-house to control depth and edge clearance.
  • Used an industrial-grade 3M bonding process selected for temperature resistance.
  • Finished edges by hand and tested assemblies across −20 °C to 60 °C.

Business outcome

20,000 sets delivered with no defects recorded across the tested temperature range.

What we need from you to start

To price a comparable project we need five inputs: a drawing or reference sample, your target landed cost, quantity per colour, the date the goods must reach your warehouse, and the packaging format. Missing items are not a blocker — we will tell you which decision the quote depends on.
