PDMS Molding Service | Custom PDMS Replica Molding & Soft Lithography

Design Realized provides professional PDMS molding and soft lithography services for researchers, startups, and product developers. We support rapid prototyping, small-batch manufacturing, and custom microfabrication projects using high-quality PDMS replication techniques.

What Is PDMS Molding?

PDMS (Polydimethylsiloxane) is a flexible silicone elastomer widely used for microfabrication, microfluidics, biomedical devices, and prototype development.

Using a master mold fabricated from silicon, metal, or other materials, PDMS can accurately replicate microstructures, channels, grooves, and surface patterns with excellent fidelity.
