Davies Molding Blog — Insights on Custom Plastic Molding, Knobs & Handles

Our most popular two-shot handles are now available in a new size!  We are now offering these Overmolded Thermoplastic Elastomer Rubber Pull Handles with a larger center to center dimension.  This new size features 140mm distance.  As always, the handles provide a non-slip comfortable grip that is durable and resistant to scratches. 

We recently honored an employee that has been working for Davies Molding for 45 years.  Talk about many years of molding experience!

Yesterday was National Forklift Safety Day 2016.  We use forklifs at our plant, so it was important to us to do something to participate in this event.  

Yesterday was the last day of GPS 2016.  After 3 warm, sunny days in Calgary, the show is officially over.  We had more visitors stop by on day 3.  They expressed great interest in the Davies Descender Fracking Series.  We enjoyed explaining the benefits of these dissolvable frac balls.  If you're interested in learning more, please Click Here.
