Contract Packaging Services 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding provides contract packaging services for OEMs and  manufacturers that need an experienced partner to manage packaging as part of their  production process. 

Rather than shipping manufactured components to another vendor solely for packaging,  customers can combine manufacturing, secondary operations, assembly, inspection, and  packaging within a coordinated production program. 

Contract packaging can be especially valuable for companies seeking to:

  • Reduce the number of suppliers 
  • Simplify purchasing 
  • Reduce transportation between vendors 
  • Reduce unnecessary material handling 
  • Improve packaging consistency

This integrated approach allows Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding to support customers from  component manufacturing through final shipment preparation.

Packaging for Injection Molded Plastic Parts 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding provides custom plastic injection molding together with  secondary operations and custom packaging. 

Injection molded components can move directly from production and inspection into  approved packaging configurations without being transported to a separate contract  packager. 

Packaging considerations for injection molded plastic parts can include:

  • Protecting cosmetic surfaces 
  • Preventing scratching 
  • Preventing deformation 
  • Separating individual components 
  • Maintaining part orientation 
  • Protecting critical features

Medical Device Packaging & Assembly 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding is ISO 13485 certified and supports medical device, diagnostic,  healthcare, laboratory, and pharmaceutical-product manufacturers. 

Medical programs often involve more than an individual molded component. They may  require multiple manufacturing and secondary processes such as molding, machining,  adhesive bonding, ultrasonic welding, printing, assembly, inspection, and packaging. 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding can combine medical manufacturing with:

  • Cleanroom injection molding 
  • Liquid silicone rubber molding 
  • Custom plastic components 
  • Clean room assembly 
  • Mechanical assembly 
  • Adhesive bonding 
  • Ultrasonic welding 
  • Pad printing 
  • Label application 
  • Inspection 
  • Custom packaging

By integrating these operations, customers can reduce the number of outside suppliers  involved in producing a completed medical component or assembly. 

Packaging requirements for medical applications are customer- and product-specific and  should be evaluated according to cleanliness, handling, regulatory, transportation, and  application requirements. 

Aerospace & Defense Component Packaging 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding is AS9100 certified and supports aerospace and defense  manufacturers requiring precision plastic and metal components, controlled secondary  operations, assembly, and packaging.

Custom packaging can help protect aerospace and defense components during:

  • Internal handling 
  • Inventory storage 
  • Transportation 
  • Shipment to customer facilities
  • Movement between production operations 
  • Delivery to assembly lines

Packaging can be coordinated with molded or machined aerospace components,  mechanical assemblies, cable assemblies, and other secondary operations. 

Protective Packaging for Precision Components 

Precision-manufactured components can be damaged by improper handling or packaging  even when the parts leave the manufacturing process within specification. 

Custom protective packaging can be designed to help reduce risks associated with:

  • Scratching 
  • Impact 
  • Movement 
  • Abrasion 
  • Surface-to-surface contact 
  • Part mixing 
  • Contamination 
  • Incorrect quantities 
  • Transportation damage

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding can evaluate the geometry, material, cosmetic requirements,  fragility, weight, and shipment conditions of each product when developing a packaging  approach. 

Protective foam, dividers, individual bags, trays, cartons, or other customer-approved  configurations can be used depending on project requirements. 

Assembly & Packaging Services 

Many customers require parts to be assembled before final packaging. 

Our assembly services can be combined with custom packaging to provide finished  subassemblies or completed products ready for shipment. 

Assembly programs may include:

  • Plastic-to-plastic assembly 
  • Plastic-to-metal assembly 
  • Mechanical assembly 
  • Cable assembly 
  • Hardware installation 
  • Insert installation
  • Adhesive bonding 
  • Ultrasonic welding 
  • Heat staking 
  • Component installation 
  • Label application 
  • Printing 
  • Inspection 
  • Packaging

Combining assembly and packaging services under one roof can reduce handling and  simplify the movement of products from individual components to packaged assemblies. 

Filling, Sealing & Packaging

For qualifying products, Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding can integrate custom packaging with  filling and sealing operations. 

This can be particularly valuable for products using blow molded bottles, containers,  dispensing components, closures, and other plastic packaging components. 

Combining manufacturing, filling, sealing, labeling, and packaging can help customers  reduce the number of separate production suppliers involved in their program. 

Label Application & Product Identification

Product packaging often requires labels for identification, traceability, branding, warnings,  instructions, barcodes, or other customer-required information. 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding can combine custom packaging with label application and  related secondary operations. 

Labeling can be incorporated into the manufacturing workflow before final packaging and  shipment. 

Pad Printing & Product Decoration

Products requiring logos, symbols, text, instructions, identification, or decorative graphics  can also utilize our pad printing services. 

Pad printing can be completed before product assembly and final packaging, helping  customers consolidate multiple finishing operations with a single manufacturing partner. 

Adhesive Bonding & Packaging

Products requiring bonded components can utilize our adhesive bonding services before  final inspection and packaging.

Adhesive bonding can be used for appropriate plastic-to-plastic, plastic-to-metal, and  multi-material assemblies depending on substrate compatibility and customer  specifications. 

Once assembled and inspected, products can move directly into the required packaging  operation. 

Ultrasonic Welding & Packaged Assemblies

For compatible thermoplastic components, ultrasonic welding can provide a permanent  joining method before final packaging. 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding can combine ultrasonic welding, assembly, inspection, and  packaging as part of an integrated manufacturing program. 

This can be particularly beneficial for medical, electronics, automotive, industrial, and  consumer products containing multiple molded plastic components. 

Custom Packaging for Machined Plastic & Metal Components

Our custom packaging services can also support components produced through plastic  and metal CNC machining. 

Precision machined components may require protection against scratching, impact,  abrasion, contamination, or movement during transit. 

Depending on the application, individual protective packaging, foam separation, trays,  bags, boxes, or other configurations can be used to maintain component quality through  storage and shipment. 

Packaging for Cosmetic & High-Finish Plastic Components

Components with high-gloss, textured, decorated, transparent, painted, coated, or  otherwise appearance-sensitive surfaces can require additional protection. 

Custom packaging can help prevent surfaces from rubbing against adjacent components  and reduce the likelihood of scratches or cosmetic damage. 

Hi-Rel Plastics & Molding can coordinate packaging with molding, surface finishing, pad  printing, labeling, assembly, and other cosmetic secondary operations.

Benefits of Combining Manufacturing & Packaging

Working with a single contract manufacturer for component production, secondary  operations, assembly, and packaging can provide several benefits. 

Fewer Suppliers 
Customers can reduce the number of vendors required to manufacture and prepare their  products. 

Reduced Transportation 
Components do not need to be shipped repeatedly between molders, assemblers,  decorators, and packaging suppliers.

Reduced Handling 
Keeping multiple processes under one roof can reduce unnecessary component  movement and handling. 

Better Production Coordination 
Manufacturing, secondary operations, assembly, inspection, and packaging schedules  can be coordinated as part of one overall production plan. 

Consistent Quality Oversight 
Quality controls can extend throughout multiple manufacturing stages rather than ending  when components leave the molding operation. 

Simplified Purchasing 
Customers can reduce purchasing complexity by consolidating multiple services with one  supplier.
