Product Development
CSS' fiber reinforced polymer composite Product Development services are tailored to mesh with existing resources
independent of project scope:
- Exploratory development efforts
- Product line upgrades
- Production problem resolution
Product Development studies typically include composite design, tooling development, prototype fabrication, and validation testing.
If overseas sourcing is planned, CSS can perform the prototype fabrication trials at a candidate vendor's factory. This
approach yields an early product quality assessment and preliminary production cost estimates.
CSS' Product Development project
portfolio includes efforts in the following categories:
- Sporting Goods
- Musical Instruments
- Medical Products
- Outdoor Equipment
- Baby Products
- Electronic Devices
