SMI Wins SPE Design Award and is
Commended in PlasticsNews®
At the Society of
Plastics Engineers (SPE) Thermoforming Conference in Nashville,
SMI brought home the Multipart Assembly Award for an enclosure
that consists of seven pressure-formed parts. Read
more about the award. Another SMI project was featured in PlasticsNews®
recently. Here's what the customer had to say about working
with SMI:

“SMI took the time to show us what they were capable of and gave us a lot of ideas that got past the traditional limitations of the process. When we wanted to try something, instead of saying ‘no’ they offered alternatives that we often liked better than what we started
with. SMI identified some problems and offered solutions. As a result,
we were able to eliminate a number of parts and reduce risk of production problems.”
