With a Canon mold, innovation is an open-and-shut case.

To stay a leader in domestic manufacturing, Canon Virginia, Inc. needed a mold maker they could rely on. Who better to turn to but themselves?

Drawing upon Canon's strong history of creating multi-cavity, tight-tolerance cosmetic molds, they created their own on-site, state-of-the art mold shop at Canon Virginia. Then they set about making it a model facility for economics and timeliness.

The result? Canon's proprietary software that makes it possible to go straight from design to manufacturing without any loss in data interpretation. This allows them to cut time and costs without cutting the most important thing: quality. That kind of innovation doesn't come easily—it requires a substantial investment in people and equipment—but it's made all the difference in their business. Not to mention their customers'.
