Thermoforming, Fabrication, and Tooling Under One Roof
Since 1977, Hill Plastics has supplied OEM manufacturers with custom thermoformed parts, enclosures, and fabricated components. Every service runs in house in our Lewisville, Texas facility.
Four Capabilities, One Accountable Team
Each service below stands on its own, but most projects move through several of them. Keeping design, tooling, forming, and finishing in one shop removes handoffs and protects your timeline.
Thermoforming / Vacuum Forming
Eight thermoforming machines from 2 x 3 up to 5 x 9 feet, plus a 4 x 7 rotary machine for high volume production. Cost effective parts from prototype through full production runs.

Plastic Fabrication
A skilled fabrication department builds acrylic point of purchase displays, industrial parts, and secondary trim work using routing machinery, punch presses, and table and panel saws.

Mold Making & Tooling
Low cost wood or polyurethane tooling for prototypes and pre production parts, and aluminum tooling for production. Tooling built to hold molding and trim details to print.

Product Design Assistance & Material Selection
From idea to turnkey solution. We recommend the proper tooling design and the right material for the application, then deliver prototypes, production tooling, and finished parts.

One roof. One accountable team. CAD file to finished part.
Design assistance, tooling, thermoforming, fabrication, and CNC trimming all run in house. That removes the vendor handoffs that put timelines at risk.
Over 20,000 square feet built for production
Established in 1977 and based near Dallas and DFW, Hill Plastics provides plastic thermoforming, vacuum forming, and fabrication for aerospace, telecommunications, industrial enclosures, marine, medical, and other OEMs and entrepreneurs. Our Lewisville, Texas facility holds over 20,000 square feet of manufacturing space.
We run single station thermoforming machines from 2 x 3 to 5 x 9 feet, a 4 x 7 rotary thermoforming machine with a cycle time 2.5 times faster than standard single station machines, and two 5 x 10 CNC trimming centers for primary and secondary trim operations.
Design and CNC interface are handled in SolidWorks. For prototypes and pre production we use low cost wood or polyurethane tooling, and aluminum tooling for production parts. Our staff carry a minimum tenure of 20 years as industry professionals and hold molding and trim details to print specifications and tolerances.
