Before exploring our services, we show you the process that shapes every project and ensures consistent, dependable outcomes.

Manufacturing Support

Prototyping

Transitioning from design into manufacturing is an exciting milestone of product development but can carry significant uncertainty and risk. Our manufacturing support service exists to make this step predictable, controlled and efficient.

Apollo Designs works alongside our clients to ensure the manufacturing risks are well understood and managed. We support supplier selection, oversee fabrication and maintain quality throughout the manufacturing process, helping avoid delays, unexpected costs and technical issues. This ensures your product moves smoothly from design to production and into real-world use.

Frequently asked questions

What industries and design disciplines do you work in?

Apollo Designs works across a wide range of product design and engineering disciplines. Our core experience includes industrial, automotive, aerospace, and mechanical product design but we’re not limited to these sectors. If you have an idea or product outside these areas, we’re always open to discussing how our skills and process could support your project.

Do you work with individuals as well as companies?

Yes, absolutely. Apollo Designs supports individuals, startups and established businesses alike. Our team structure and pricing are designed to be flexible, allowing us to tailor a scope of work that suits your project, experience level and budget.

Can you support just one stage of the design process?

Yes. While our services cover the full product development lifecycle, each stage can be undertaken independently. We are always happy to investigate how we can join a project at any point and tailor our support to what you need right now.

How do you approach project costs and budgeting?

We work collaboratively to define a clear scope and budget before starting. Our approach focuses on transparency and value, helping you invest in the right level of design support at each stage.

Do you help with manufacturing and supplier selection?

Yes. Through our trusted supplier network we support through manufacturing, including supplier selection, technical liaison and quality assurance. You’re also free to use your own suppliers if you prefer.

Do I need a fully defined brief before getting started?

No. Apollo Designs is set up to allow clients to come to us with early ideas rather than a complete specification. Part of our role is to help shape and clarify your brief so you can move forward with confidence.

I have a design question, can I get in touch?

Absolutely. We’re always happy to hear from people who are looking to get started in design and engineering or who simply have a question they’d like to discuss. Please use our Contact page to get in touch with the team and we’ll do what we can to help.
