Welcome to HBH Project Management

At HBH Project Management, we help bring your ideas to life with expert, unbiased guidance on the best manufacturing solutions for your needs. Whether you're starting with a sketch on the back of an envelope or fully developed CAD files, we’re here to turn your vision into reality.

We are an ISO 9001:2015 registered UK-based supplier of prototype and low-volume plastic and metal parts. But what makes us different? Unlike other companies that push one process over another, we offer honest, expert advice based on what’s truly best for your project. With extensive expertise in all major manufacturing methods, we assess your requirements and recommend the most cost-effective, high-quality, and efficient solution—without bias.

What We Do

From concept to production, we support every stage of your project:

Prototyping & Development – Need a single prototype for investor pitches or multiple samples for market testing? We’ll guide you through options like 3D printing, CNC machining, vacuum casting and more to find the right fit for your goals and budget.

Manufacturing Solutions – Moving beyond the prototype phase? We help scale production efficiently with CNC machining, injection moulding, metal fabrication, vacuum forming and other advanced techniques.

Component Supply – Already know what you need? Our global supply network ensures competitive pricing and rapid turnaround, whether you need one unit or 100,000. No minimum order quantities—just the right solution at the right price.

Why Choose HBH?

Our Capabilities

🔹 CNC Machining – High-precision metal & plastic parts, from one-offs to large scale production runs.

🔹 Injection Moulding – Low-cost, low-volume solutions to make injection moulding accessible to all.

🔹 Vacuum Casting / RIM Moulding – High quality prototype or low volume parts that mimic the performance of injection moulded components.

🔹 3D Printing (Additive Manufacturing) – Cutting-edge solutions for rapid production of metal and plastic parts.

🔹 Metal Fabrication - From prototypes to full production runs in a wide variety of materials.

🔹 Vacuum Forming – Cost effective solution for simple form plastic parts,

How to choose the best method of production?

There are many factors to take into account when deciding the best method of production. These include:

End use – Prototype? Production? Testing? Market Research?

Operating environment – temperatures, contact chemicals, indoor/outdoor, robustness

Does it need to be end use material or is performance emulant acceptable?

Number of parts? Timescale and budget? How quickly do you need it? How cost sensitive?

Deciding on the most appropriate method is where HBH can prove to be invaluable – by working with you, learning exactly what your project needs are and then guiding you to the best solution – the best in terms of performance, time scale and budget.

Example: Small Automotive Prototype External Air Duct

Requirement and end use : Part will painted and used for styling clinics and photography / marketing purposes, it will not be subjected to road or laboratory testing. Quantity needed 14. End use material PA GF30 (Glass Filled Nylon)

Because the quantity is low, end use material is not required and tooling costs would be unjustifiably high then injection moulding can be discounted. As part is small RIM is not suitable and due to part geometry Vacuum Forming can also be dismissed. However this still leaves 3D Printing, Vacuum Casting or CNC Machining. In this scenario because the part will be painted for photography and therefore an excellent surface finish would be required 3D printing can be counted out as it would require significant amount of hand finishing prior to painting and because vacuum casting uses PU it is not always the best choice for painting. Therefore in this particular case CNC Machining in a material such as ABS would be the best option. Often, even if the geometry is complex, parts can be machined in sections and bonded together seamlessly – this is fine for photography etc but not right for testing or production.

No matter what stage your project is at, HBH Project Management is here to guide you every step of the way. Let’s turn your ideas into something tangible, together.
