ABOUT PD MODELS
Precision prototyping, built on decades of experience
WHO WE ARE
A specialist prototyping studio with a long track record
PD Models has been producing high-quality prototypes and models for product and industrial designers since 1978. Based in Burgess Hill, West Sussex, we work with clients across the UK — from individual designers to large manufacturers.
Our in-house capabilities span 3D printing, vacuum casting, traditional model making, and small batch production — giving clients access to the right process for every stage of their project, under one roof.
Every job is handled with the same attention to detail and commitment to quality, whether it's a single concept model or a batch of fifty production-representative parts.
