CFS serves customers with superior development of custom foam products

Custom foam components are a specialty of CFS.

When it comes to foam components, businesses need unique products that require development support and expertise tailored to solving individual challenges. Custom Foam Systems Ltd. (CFS) knows this. The company’s broad scope of technical knowledge in materials, design, tooling, and manufacturing helps customers achieve the custom foam products they need.

A unique advantage that CFS offers in producing customized components is its proven Advanced Product Quality Planning process, or APQP.

Full range of support services

The customer needs to provide only a CAD drawing or rendering to the CFS team of APQP experts, who offer a full range of product-development support services for custom foam products. These include product design and engineering, prototyping, testing and verification, tooling, and trial production runs. These engineers and manufacturing specialists treat every project with complete confidentiality, balancing design expertise with quality and cost-efficiency.

CFS embraces APQP as a cross-functional development and launch program to meet customer expectations on every production run. The team works closely with clients through every phase of the process, from initial concept to product launch. Among the advantages of the APQP exercise:

• a forum for open, ongoing communication between CFS and the customer;
• discovery of all critical product characteristics;
• examination and mitigation of risk factors;
• collaboration between customer service, purchasing, and production early in the process; and
• lower cost of quality, due to upfront investigation to find and fix problems, resulting in an issue-free launch.

Throughout the design and development phase for custom foam products, CFS applies much effort into optimizing function, cost, and quality, using robust, reliable processes to ensure critical characteristics for maximum success. The company is well equipped to solve many challenges, like design constraints, part weight, packaging, or safety requirements.

Prototyping and piloting help CFS to validate design and manufacturing processes to meet the customer’s specifications. The company develops quality and tolerance requirements to ensure standard conformance, while measuring key production targets and reviewing them daily. Specialized testing labs are available to validate product performance, with the help of industry-specific testing experts.

For the peak of custom foam components, trust CFS.
