CUSTOM-MADE PRODUCTS

Custom Plastic Tube Manufacturer

Unique ideas and specific technical requirements call for custom-made solutions. As a custom plastic tube manufacturer, TimaFlex develops and produces tailor-made plastic profiles for a wide range of industrial applications. Whether you already have a detailed design or an initial concept, the development process is aligned with your functional and technical needs. From the first sketch to the final product, we support the entire trajectory with an efficient and controlled supply chain.

Materials and Equipment for Our Custom-Made Plastic Tubes

As a custom plastic tube manufacturer, we single-handedly design and develop our own extrusion equipment, cooling reservoirs, and auxiliary tooling. This enables us to make profiles from a wide range of plastics, including

  • ABS
  • Bio-based and compostable plastics
  • Polyethylene (LDPE, MDPE, HDPE)
  • Polyamide (PA)
  • Polypropylene (PP, glass-reinforced PP (up to 60%))
  • PS (including HIPS)
  • TPE
  • TPV

Profiles can be produced in any required color and finished by clipping or sawing, with length tolerances of less than 0.3 mm.

Calculating Costs: A Step-By-Step Plan

We aim to achieve the most viable and affordable design. We manufacture custom-made plastic tubes in three steps:

1.

1.

Design

Geometry

Send us your blueprint or concept sketch. Together, we will work out the exact dimensions of your profile and create a definitive blueprint.

Choosing materials

Once the geometry of the profile is on paper, we choose which material to extrude. The choice of material depends on several factors:

  • Hardness and elasticity
  • UV- and weather-resistance
  • Flame-retardant or flame-extinguishing properties
  • Color
  • Antibacterial properties
  • Antistatic properties
  • Chemical resistance
  • Degree of food contact
  • Impact resistance
  • Temperature resistance
  • Diffusion density
  • Use of recycled plastics

Quantity

Profiles are extruded in meters of length at a time. The one-off start-up of the production process costs energy, time, and materials. That means the more meters you order, the more efficient the process is. This is why it is important to set the desired quantity in advance.

Development of unique equipment

Each unique extrusion process requires a one-of-a-kind die and cooling reservoir. Based on the geometry, choice of material, and production quantity, we design a special die and cooling reservoir. Once the equipment has been defined, we can determine the costs.

Tailor-made quote

After completing the design and tooling phases, we can prepare a tailor-made quote for you. Within a few days, you will receive a breakdown of the costs for your approval. Once the quote is approved, production can be scheduled and the extrusion process can be initiated according to the agreed specifications and quantities.

Fast Delivery

From the first sketch to the final product, we support the entire trajectory with an efficient and controlled supply chain, resulting in application-specific extruded solutions such as spiral tubes and other custom-made plastic profiles. Because we develop our own extrusion equipment and cooling systems in-house, production planning remains flexible. This supports short lead times and reliable delivery, even for custom-made plastic profiles.

Packaging and Traceability

Custom plastic tubes are supplied in packaging formats that integrate smoothly into your production process. Depending on logistical and handling requirements, both compact and bulk packaging options are available. Each shipment is labeled with a batch number to ensure full traceability of material origin and production data.
