Prototype molding

In 2010, a specialized team at GLP developed a technology for manufacturing injection-molded prototype parts without having to make the final mold. This innovation gave rise to the StepOne prototyping service, which effectively meets the demand for prototype parts that can be validated in real-life conditions.

StepOne, exclusive to GLP customers, is a flexible, affordable service for manufacturing prototype parts.

StepOne advantages and expertise

Whether for mechanical testing, pilot projects, approvals or marketing, StepOne allows you to obtain prototype parts made from the same materials intended for production without spending on the production molds. Thanks to the StepOne team’s extensive expertise in mold manufacturing and injection molding, your prototypes are as real as it gets.

Your prototype parts will be more concrete, and the wide range of engineering resins on offer means you can find and test the material that best matches the requirements of your final product. From now on, the tests you put your products through in the development phase will be more conclusive.

Here are our main resin families

  • Polypropylene (PP, PP-GF)
  • HDPE
  • TPO
  • PC, PC-ABS, ASA, PC-PBT
  • TPE, TPV, TPU
  • ABS
  • Nylon 6 and 66 (PA6, PA6-GF, PA66, PA6-GF)
  • PBT (PBT-GF)
  • PPS
