    I am looking for a thermoformer that can help us at Applied Materials that work with us on prototypes.  Volumes are low to start with ramp potential.  Preferably in the SF Bay Area.  Thanks,
    Dan

    Dan,

    May I suggest contacting Reflex Packaging as they are in SoCal. They also have experience with designing for shock protection.

    I endorse the recommendation for Reflex. I've done a number of projects with Reflex, and have always been delighted.

    If manufacture is re-deployed elsewhere, they have numerous global partners, so it will be seamless for you.

    Forrest, and his team, are great to work with.
