Frequently Asked Sourcing Questions
Q: Who owns the injection molds once paid for?
You 100% own the injection molds. We can store and maintain them in our temperature-controlled mold storage for your future production, or ship the molds directly to your facility overseas.
Q: How much can I save by building molds in China compared to the USA/Europe?
Typical tooling cost savings range from 60% to 75% for identical steel specifications (such as LKM mold bases and ASSAB / Daido tool steels).
