For businesses that require high-quality, small-batch plastic components, UGP Plastics specializes in short run injection molding parts that deliver precision, durability and cost-effectiveness. Unlike mass production, which demands large investments in tooling and high-volume output, our low volume injection molding services allow for customized, flexible manufacturing that meets your specific project requirements. Whether you need prototypes, replacement parts, or limited-edition components, we provide exceptional accuracy and consistency while reducing lead times and overall production costs.
Types of Short Run Injection Molding Parts We Produce
At UGP Plastics, we manufacture custom plastic injection molded parts for various industries, ensuring that even small production runs meet the highest standards. Some of the parts we specialize in include:
• Prototype and Pre-Production Parts: Ideal for companies to use in testing new product designs, market trials or confirming functionality before full scale manufacturing. Our prototypes offer real life performance data with the ability to make quick changes.
• Custom Components for Specialized Industries: For automotive, aerospace, medical and electronics applications, we create precision mold built to our specifications to meet industry standards for strength, heat resistance and chemical durability.
• Replacement and Legacy Parts: Perfect for companies that need small amounts of replacement components for products that are no longer produced, or spare parts for machinery or specialty items that have special requirements and are not currently produced in large quantities.
Why Choose Short Run Injection Molding Parts?
Short run injection molding parts is an excellent solution for businesses that don’t require high-volume manufacturing but still need precisely molded plastic parts with excellent material properties. Some key benefits include:
- Cost-Effective Production : Classic mass production has the problem of high tooling costs which restrict its application to high volume production. Our short run solutions are designed such that tooling costs are reduced to the minimum in order to be able to produce parts in small quantities without having to spend a lot of money.
- Faster Production Times : We know that speed to market is critical and our streamlined molding processes are fast, so that your parts are delivered quickly without sacrificing quality.
- Design Adaptability : Because low volume injection moulding enables flexible modifications, you can do design changes between production runs, do material adjustments, or test new product iterations without costly delays.
- Wide Material Selection : We offer a comprehensive range of thermoplastics and engineered resins for processing, including ABS, polycarbonate (PC), polypropylene (PP), and high performance polymers for those applications that require strength, flexibility, chemical resistance or heat tolerance.
- Precision and Quality Assurance : Even at low volume production we ensure that every part has strict tolerances, uniformity and durability through sophisticated molding techniques and stringent quality control processes.
Whether you are in the industry or have an application in mind, UGP Plastics offers the best short run injection molding services that enable companies to innovate, test and optimize their products before finalizing their manufacturing process.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
What materials are used for short run injection molded parts?
A variety of thermoplastics like ABS, Polypropylene (PP), Polycarbonate (PC), Nylon (PA), and high-performance resins like PEEK are used based on strength, heat resistance, flexibility, or chemical properties.
How long does it take to produce short run injection molded parts?
Production timelines vary by design complexity and material selection, but short run injection molding typically delivers parts within a few weeks rather than months.
Are short run injection molded parts as durable as mass-produced parts?
Yes, short run injection molded parts offer the same quality, strength, and performance as mass-produced components due to precise molding techniques and material selection.
Can short run injection molding be used for prototyping?
Absolutely! It is an ideal prototyping method that allows businesses to test designs, validate performance, and refine parts before full-scale production.
