When Goody Products, a division of Newell Rubbermaid, needed to introduce their new premium line of quality Hair Brushes in just 6 weeks, they called on General Pattern’s Rapid mold-making process to radically reduce the time and cost to create injection molds.

Utilizing state-of-the-art Laser Sintered (L.S.) tooling technology, General Pattern was able to produce 6 injection molds in less than 4 weeks. With in-house molding capability to 1000 tons, the need for 10,000 pieces (of each brush style) shipped in just 2 weeks.

Using General Pattern’s Rapid Manufacturing process, Goody was able to provide Target Stores with enough product to secure shelf space until their production tooling came on line. An added bonus for Goody was landing the Walgreen’s account. This was a first for Goody, and would not have happened had early product not been available.
