1. Concept & Development

We start by deeply understanding our customers needs, assessing their challenges, and brainstorming solutions that align with their goals. We ensure innovative ideas that are sustainable and user-centric, setting a solid foundation for successful design. Site visits and evaluation of similar products can both be a key step in this process.

AION can assist in developing everything from complex industrial products to simple designs.

2. Design & Prototyping

Our inhouse experts have significant experience from designing products fit for automation, manufacturing (DFM) and an efficient value-chain, and uses tools like SolidWorks. We create precise 3D models and draft detailed design concepts. AION will produce designs fit for the selected manufacturing process. Our prototyping capabilities include:

  • 3D Printing for rapid, cost-effective prototypes.
  • Machined Prototypes for high-precision parts and testing.
  • Custom Molding for specific form and function needs.

3. Material Sourcing

AION work with premium and traceable recycled plastics, ensuring high standards and stability in quality. As we utilize materials for our  existing product portfolio, these are materials and value-chains we already in-depth knowledge on. Our standard materials include:

  • HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene)
  • PP (Polypropylene)
  • LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene)

These materials often come from marine industry waste such as nets, ropes, trawls, and big bags, supporting sustainability and resource efficiency. If you have other material needs or your own sources of plastic waste you'd like us to utilize then AION can evaluate this through our "Waste to Resource" solution. 

4. Tools & Manufacturing

We guide clients on the best manufacturing processes tailored to their product, volume, and budget, ordering the correct tools needed for manufacturing. Processes we work with often are:

  • Injection Molding for detailed and mass production.
  • Extrusion for consistent, long pieces.
  • Rotational Molding for hollow products.
  • Blow Molding for items like containers.
  • Vacuum Forming for blister type products
  • Machining 

If you have another manufacturing process in mind let us know and we'll be happy to evaluate if we're able to assist you.

5. Supply & Quality Assurance

After everything is set up, AION can take on the role as the single-point of contact in supply of products. Handling material and order processes. As well as delivering you with our annual Impact report on orders for that year.

Our robust quality assurance protocols are set up with manufacturing to ensure structural performance, quality, regulatory compliance and aesthetics are all upheld. This stage is crucial for confirming that your products meet durability and usability standards.

6. End-of-Life Solutions

We integrate a circular approach by designing all products so that they are easy to recycle. Collaborating with our customers, we plan for the return and repurposing of used products to maximize sustainability. This helps achieve zero waste, promoting continuous use of materials within the circular economy.

Waste to Resource Solution for your Plastics
