ENGINEERING AND DESIGN OF PLASTIC PRODUCTS
Since every project is unique, we offer a turnkey approach that includes services such as industrial design, FEA calculations, 2D and 3D technical drawings, rapid prototyping services and any other technical requirements specific to your project. We design and manufacture your plastic injection mold, and we also offer you assembly jigs, Poka-Yoke inspection and all the automation adapted exclusively to your part.
A MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM
THE POWER OF EXPERIENCE
Our extensive experience in APQP (Advanced Quality Planning) combined with our PDP enables us to create a flawless design, since all your product specifications are validated before going into production.
A RIGOROUS PROCESS
Whether you require virtual stress or flow analysis, or physical performance, strength or other tests, every element of your product can be rigorously verified.
Mould design and manufacture
We design and manufacture quality plastic injection molds for some thirty countries worldwide. With experience dating back to 1973, we can anticipate problems before they occur. At VIF, our experience in plastic injection mold making enables us to design an easy-to-produce product with a robust process, at a lower cost.
Every year, we manufacture around a hundred molds of all sizes and complexities. As the mold manufacturer par excellence, we have all the expertise in-house. As soon as your mold is conceived, our team of experts evaluates its design, optimizes it and validates it before it goes into production. Thanks to these high standards and quality planning, a mold designed by VIF can produce over a million cycles, with very little maintenance.
PROTOTYPAGES
If you’d like to validate and test your part design before manufacturing your mold, we can design prototype molds in aluminum or steel, which we can reuse in micro or small-scale production. Depending on your deadline and budget, we can handle rapid prototype production from local or overseas sources. For all other requirements, we are always ready to listen to your needs and propose innovative solutions.
COMPLETE MACHINE SHOP
We operate a complete machine shop. Our equipment enables us to manufacture molds in-house, from A to Z. Since any modifications or repairs are carried out at VIF, production can be restarted quickly, so you don’t incur any delays or transport costs at this stage. What’s more, all tooling is tailored to your specifications. Our state-of-the-art plant guarantees a quality product that exceeds industry standards.
Overseas manufacturing partners
Since 2002, we have benefited from strong, competitive Asian partners. This important alliance with Asia translates into substantial savings on the production cost of your mold, without any compromise on quality.
VIF Plastiques’ know-how, combined with our partners’ extensive production capacity, ensures impeccable design, fast turnaround times and thorough checks. Whether your part specification is the most complex, or you have more than one mold to manufacture, we design and produce what you need in the shortest possible time.
PROVEN, EFFICIENT PROCESS
Our APQP (Advanced Quality Planning) and PDP (Product Development Process) trained team has all the expertise and technology to optimize your product. While all design, production and quality planning are handled at our factory, the manufacture of your mold at our partners’ facilities is rigorously monitored. If necessary, each stage is validated, modified and approved by our experts, until the final product meets your expectations. This tried-and-tested process has given us a 100% success rate to date.
COMPETITIVE PRICES AND FAST DELIVERY
At VIF, we do everything we can to meet your deadlines and your budget. Our long-standing partnerships are well established and efficient. We can deliver a finished, quality product in just a few weeks, at a competitive price.
SOLUTIONS TAILORED TO YOUR NEEDS
Depending on the number of parts you need to produce and the time you have available, VIF offers a range of options to help you save money. Depending on your priorities, production can be carried out in part or in full by our partners. When it comes to maintenance, engineering changes or anything else, get all services under one roof.

A MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM
Our experts will work with you to take your project through to production. Our team of industrial designers, robotics technicians, designers, project managers, engineers, quality process technicians and toolmakers will work together on your project. They will guide you in the choice of material and the design of your part to obtain the best quality-price ratio for your product.
THE POWER OF EXPERIENCE
Our experience in manufacturing processes related to plastic molding enables us to offer you various options for reducing costs. In some cases, for example, we may suggest grouping several pieces together in a product to reduce production and assembly costs. In other cases, we may suggest modifications to the design or manufacturing process to reduce tooling or production costs.
Our extensive experience in APQP (Advanced Quality Planning) combined with our PDP enables us to create a flawless design, since all your product specifications are validated before going into production.
A RIGOROUS PROCESS
Our integrated Product Development Process (PDP) ensures that all your needs are validated at every stage: product design, tooling development, process validation and production start-up. The PDP oversees the work of all trades at every stage. With a well-defined plan for each phase, you can easily track the progress of your project.
Whether you require virtual stress or flow analysis, or physical performance, strength or other tests, every element of your product can be rigorously verified.
