WHO WE ARE
Shape Prototype is a hardware product solution studio based in Taiwan, with product manufacturing function located in Shenzhen, China. Our goal is to support hardware and IoT startups & SMEs worldwide by providing a product solution that is affordable, shortening the manufacturing process and minimizing the production cost.
Over the past 10 years, our product engineering team worked as a contract manufacturer making parts and products for large companies in the US, such as Tesla, Intel, Phillip. As a product supplier, we are aware that often when a manufactured product reached to its owner, it could have passed through several intermediaries and that the production cost could increase several times. This, regrettably, puts a financial strain on the early stage of a startup.
Since 2015, aside from serving high profile companies, Shape Prototype spun off to focus on small to medium businesses and startups. With more than 10 years' expertise and resources, our goal is to assist with worldwide entrepreneurs in product manufacturing process without compromising on product and service quality. This not only helps ease the communication process but eliminates the production costs that have spent by going through several intermediaries.
From 1 to 100,000+ custom parts, from prototyping, rapid tooling, and high volume production, we provide customized product solution for each project. Contact us today and discover a better way to approach your manufacturing needs!
