Our Services. For you.
Bringing ideas to life — beautifully and precisely.
At ectype, we turn imagination into reality. Whether you’re looking for a one-off custom piece, a detailed prototype, or bespoke signage, we offer a complete creative-to-production service combining design expertise, precision fabrication, and a genuine passion for craftsmanship.
From CAD design to 3D printing, laser cutting, and even casting, we provide flexible solutions tailored to you. Every project starts with an idea, yours or ours and ends with something tangible, made with care and accuracy.
Whether you have a fully formed concept or just a rough sketch, we can help bring it to life through 3D design and modelling. Using industry-standard CAD software and advanced design tools, we create accurate, production-ready models for:
-
Product prototypes and engineering parts
-
Custom fittings or replacement components
-
Artistic, decorative, or functional designs
We also offer reverse-engineering services, perfect for recreating discontinued or damaged parts. Every model is designed with manufacturability and precision in mind, ensuring a seamless transition from idea to finished piece.

FDM & Resin 3D Printing
We offer two styles of 3D printing to suit different needs:
FDM (Filament Printing) – Ideal for strong, functional, and cost-effective parts. Using materials such as PLA, PETG, ABS, and TPU, we produce everything from mechanical components to large decorative pieces.
Resin Printing – Perfect for smooth, high-detail results. With our resin printers, we can achieve crisp, accurate prints using clear, coloured, or tough resins, excellent for miniatures, prototypes, and detailed models.
We also offer post-processing options like sanding, priming, painting, and clear coating for a professional finish right out of the box.
Casting & Moulding
For projects that need replication, texture, or a unique material finish, we also provide casting and moulding services. Using high-quality silicone and polyurethane resins, we can produce detailed moulds and casts for a variety of applications:- Custom art or decorative pieces
- Candle moulds and resin products
- Functional prototypes or replacement parts
- Each mould and cast is designed with precision and durability in mind, ensuring consistent, repeatable results every time.
