TAKING YOUR PROJECT FROM START TO FINISH

Hendrick's engineers successfully steer your project from design through development. Working with us from start to finish keeps your project in budget and on schedule, and results in a high-quality finished product.

We undertake value engineering, which means that we optimize the manufacturing process in order to arrive at a balance between quality and cost, providing you with the best possible overall value. We often modify the original design slightly or adjust the manufacturing process — while maintaining the part's functionality, quality and durability — to save you money and time, so you get your order more quickly and at a lower cost. Hendrick always points out cost savings that can be achieved through altering the material, dimensions, gauge, finishing process and/or packaging — you get only what is needed for your application.

WHY HENDRICK? 

We have 145+ years of experience in engineering practical and cost-effective solutions for a wide range of applications — from the simple to the most complex. Using state-of-the-art machines and first-rate materials, we engineer perforated metal products that precisely suit your application. Hendrick utilizes the latest in CAD/CAM software and other advanced technology to work with your detailed design and produce your components while reducing manufacturing costs. 

We collaborate with you during every stage of product development, from concept and design to prototype and testing through redesign and manufacture. We encourage communication between sales, engineering and manufacturing professionals to ensure the success of every project. Our goal is to provide you with the highest-quality solution — one that meets your precise requirements — at a competitive price.
