Our goal is to simplify the process of making an injection mold, which begs the question why we have a brokerage service to compete against our mold shop – because presenting all options are best for our customers.
Most people are going to be looking for comparative options and bids, the hard part is that as we hold the goal of simplifying the process to safeguard our customers throwing our friends out to the wolves isn't good for us or them.
The brokerage is simple to explain – while our in-house services provide extra protection, customer service, and guarantees, the brokerage allows a person to see what that mold would cost from a conventional tooling company.
So who are these companies? From years of business cooperation we have a large network of all sorts of manufacturing companies. These are Chinese factories that also specialize in tooling but don't have have the ease of communication and all of the safeguard guarantees that we're able to offer ourselves.
Another service of brokerage are for customers seeking other types of molding such as thermoforming, roto-molding, and compression molding.
Customers can still benefit from clear explanations of what these molds entail, and assistance in in processing, importing, and testing. Zen Molds earns a set fee in-line with typical commission fees on these molds.
We seek to serve our customers. We promised to keep your process simple, and this allows us to keep our promise while offering you options.
We only use qualified mold shops when we broker out molds. However expect a difference in interaction and assistance.
This service is designed for those who have a completed plan of manufacturing with drawings ready to execute.
Mold to be produced per drawings. Problems with drawings that prevent the mold from being made properly are negotiated with the broker factory. Optimization design input services aren't normally a part of the service of brokerage.
Expect timing to be industry standard. One of the most unique things about our in-house service is exceptional speed or mold production. We really believe that we are the fastest option available.
Like our primary division, we will not allow other factories to encumber the ownership of your mold. It's your property.
Because the process of making the mold is done outside of our facility, we are unable to promise you scheduled tracking of the mold. We will update you as we are updated.
We will protect your price at the contracted price, however part of our in-house process is guaranteeing that your parts function planned, we can will guarantee that the mold is finished but we can't promise specific functionality on brokered molds.
Our in-house process uses above standard materials and highly skilled worked to produce top quality. Our brokered molds are generally good quality but don't match highest quality of our in-house quality.
We cannot warranty others work, warranties vary by company.
Our brokerage exists to save people money. We seek to offer you a positive experience but cannot include the same assurances that we can within our factory.
