High-Performance Plastic Parts from Prototype to Production<\/span><\/h1>\n

New materials and finishing capabilities help engineers reduce risk, maintain continuity, and accelerate the path from design validation to production<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

High Wycombe, UK\u2014 9 February, 2026<\/strong> \u2014 Quickparts, a global leader in advanced manufacturing solutions that scale from prototype to production, today announced the launch of DuraKor\u2122 and ThermaKor\u2122, two high-performance plastic materials, along with the addition of vapour smoothing as a core surface-finishing capability. Together, these offerings strengthen Quickparts\u2019 ability to support customers across multiple stages of product development\u2014empowering customers to innovate with confidence and scale without switching partners, from a single prototype to production runs in the millions.<\/p>\n

As products move from design to market, engineering teams often face discontinuities between materials, processes, and suppliers that introduce risk and delay. The introduction of DuraKor, ThermaKor, and vapour smoothing provides new options to help teams validate designs in performance-capable materials, refine surface quality, and transition more smoothly between manufacturing methods as volumes increase.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe biggest challenge in manufacturing isn\u2019t making a part\u2014it\u2019s moving from validation to production without losing performance, quality, or time,\u201d said Avi Reichental, CEO of Quickparts. \u201cWith these launches, we\u2019re giving engineers more continuity across that journey, using materials and finishing options designed to perform in real-world production environments.\u201d<\/p>\n
