Plastic Injection Mould Tooling

At International Tooling Solutions, we offer end-to-end support for all your plastic injection mould tooling requirements. From the initial RFQ stage through to tool delivery and validation, our experienced team manages every aspect of the tooling process. We work closely with clients to ensure that each mould tool is developed to meet precise specifications, ensuring high-quality output and consistent manufacturing results. Whether you require single-cavity tools, multi-cavity tools, or family moulds, we tailor every solution to your production needs.

Our approach combines precision engineering with robust project management, allowing us to maintain complete oversight of timelines, budgets, and technical requirements. Every tool we supply is designed for long-term durability and optimised for manufacturing efficiency. We also offer full validation support, including part sampling, to ensure tools perform flawlessly before moving into full production. This commitment to quality and service excellence has made ITS a trusted tooling partner for manufacturers across the UK and internationally.

With over 60 years of combined experience in plastic injection moulding, ITS is trusted by manufacturers across sectors for our technical knowledge, reliability, and responsiveness. Our directors bring together specialist backgrounds in toolmaking, process engineering, commercial management, and operations—ensuring we understand both the technical and strategic demands of tooling projects. We pride ourselves on our ability to consistently meet tight deadlines while delivering tools that exceed client expectations.

Our reputation is built on more than just engineering expertise. Clients value our open communication, on-time delivery, and tailored support throughout the tooling lifecycle. We’re proactive in identifying opportunities to improve product designs, reduce manufacturing costs, and maximise tool longevity. When you choose ITS, you’re partnering with a team that’s committed to your success—combining technical rigour with real-world experience and a hands-on, collaborative approach.

Successful plastic injection mould tooling starts with strong foundations. At ITS, we use Design for Manufacturability (DFM) to assess and optimise part designs before tooling begins. This process helps identify potential production issues early, such as material flow restrictions, cooling inefficiencies, or poor part ejection. By refining the design at this stage, we reduce production risk, improve part quality, and keep tooling costs under control. This stage is crucial for ensuring your mould performs well under real manufacturing conditions.

Following DFM, we carry out advanced Mold Flow Analysis to simulate how molten plastic will behave inside the mould. This analysis highlights any issues such as weld lines, air traps, or uneven filling, allowing us to make informed decisions on gate positioning, wall thickness, and cooling channels. Once the tool is built, we support validation through factory and site acceptance testing, along with sample part runs. Our structured process ensures every tool performs reliably and efficiently from the outset.

ITS has extensive experience managing complex tooling projects across international supply chains. Our global network of trusted partners allows us to source high-quality tools from overseas suppliers without compromising on standards or delivery schedules. Whether you require tools manufactured in Europe or Asia, we handle the entire coordination process—from design approval to shipment and validation—ensuring consistency, communication, and quality control at every stage.

We understand that overseas tooling requires careful risk management and proactive support. That’s why we offer full project oversight, including regular updates, timeline management, and technical audits. Our team is also available for onsite visits, both domestically and internationally, to ensure tooling projects remain on track. By combining our local expertise with global reach, ITS helps manufacturers gain cost-effective tooling solutions without the usual challenges of offshore production.
