Custom Extrusion Manufacturing Services

Ford Atlantic specializes in designing and producing high-quality extrusions across a wide range of materials for OEMs, builders, and industrial manufacturers. With decades of global sourcing experience and advanced manufacturing capabilities, we deliver precision extruded profiles in virtually any dimension or tolerance.

From aluminum window extrusions and vinyl profiles to cellular PVC used in composite trim and flooring applications, our team provides engineered extrusion solutions tailored to your specifications. Whether supporting architectural, industrial, or specialty manufacturing programs, we offer design flexibility and scalable production.

What Is Extrusion?

Extrusion is a manufacturing process used to produce long, continuous lengths of material with a uniform cross-section. During the process, solid material is forced through a precision die under controlled pressure—and often elevated temperature—to form complex shapes.

Because the material is shaped through a die, extrusion allows for intricate geometries that would be inefficient or impossible to achieve through machining or casting. The result is a consistent profile with predictable dimensional accuracy across extended lengths.

Design Flexibility and Precision

Extrusion manufacturing offers significant design flexibility. Profiles can be engineered with internal cavities, complex cross-sections, reinforcement ribs, or integrated fastening features. This reduces the need for secondary fabrication and lowers overall production costs.

Ford Atlantic supports both standard profiles and fully custom extruded components. Our team works from customer prints and CAD files to ensure dimensional consistency, tolerance control, and material alignment with performance requirements.

Materials We Support

Material selection is driven by strength requirements, environmental exposure, weight considerations, and finishing needs. We support extrusion production in:

  • Aluminum
  • Vinyl
  • Cellular PVC
  • Composite trim materials
  • Engineered plastics

 

Aluminum extrusions are widely used in structural, framing, and architectural applications due to their strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Vinyl and PVC profiles are often selected for weather resistance, insulation properties, and cost efficiency.

Secondary Operations and Finishing

In addition to primary extrusion, Ford Atlantic provides value-added secondary processes to deliver production-ready components.

  • Cutting and precision length control
  • CNC machining and drilling
  • Milling and slotting
  • Anodizing and powder coating
  • Painting and finishing
  • Assembly integration


These integrated capabilities allow customers to reduce supplier fragmentation and streamline procurement.

Cost Efficiency and Production Scalability

Extrusion is one of the most efficient manufacturing processes for producing uniform cross-sectional components in medium- to high-volume programs. Once tooling is established, per-piece costs are predictable and production rates remain consistent.

Ford Atlantic supports both development runs and high-volume production, aligning tooling investment with forecasted demand to ensure long-term cost discipline.

Integrated Manufacturing Solutions

Extruded components can be incorporated into contract assembly programs or configured through contract packaging services to simplify logistics and installation.
