Precision tooling · injection molding · assembly
American owned.
Japanese managed.
Vietnamese cost.
Precision tooling and injection molding from a Tier-1 Vietnam factory — with Japanese engineering oversight and a U.S. company you contract directly. Move your production out of China, without giving up quality or control.
American owned
You contract one U.S. company — one point of accountability, your IP protected, the relationship held in America.
Japanese managed
Engineers with Honda, Nissan, Toyota, and aerospace pedigree manage and validate quality on every tool and every build.
Vietnamese cost
Tier-1 factory pricing — a fraction of U.S. cost, shipped FOB and diversified out of China.
The path to volume
One partner, from first CAD to finished part
No handoffs between a design shop, a toolmaker, and a factory. We carry your part through every stage.
Design
DFM & design-for-volume, reverse engineering, fixtures.
Tooling
Precision mold and die design, built to last.
Molding
Injection molding at production scale.
Assembly
Build, decorate, and pack to spec.
Ship FOB
Packed and shipped FOB Vietnam — you import under your name.
One relationship. Design through delivery.
The scale behind the speed
A Tier-1, automotive-grade factory behind every part
Melipona produces through a large-scale manufacturing campus built to automotive standards — injection molding, in-house tooling, assembly, and FOB shipping under one roof.
ISO 9001 · ISO 13485 · IATF 16949 · ISO 14001 · ISO 45001 · FDA-registered
What we make
One factory, from tool to finished product

Single, vertical, and two-color molding across the full tonnage range, at production volume.
Medical & clean-room
ISO 13485, FDA-registered, Class-5 clean-room molding for medical plastics and disposables.
Engineering plastics
The full resin range — PC, ABS, PA66, POM, PEI and more — in medical and engineering grades.
Decoration & assembly
Finishing, decoration, and assembly to a packed, finished product — ready to ship.
Engineering & validation
DFM, reverse engineering, and fixtures — with Japanese masters validating every design for manufacture.
Why Melipona
We solve the problem, not just make the part.
Most factories take an order. We start with what you're trying to ship — then bring the quality, the pricing, and clear, prompt communication in English and Japanese to get you there. One responsive team, accountable to you, with your production diversified out of China.
How we work with you
Two ways to work together
Project engineering & production
Bring us a part or a program. We quote fast, design it for manufacture, tool it, and produce it — one project at a time. The simplest way to start.
- Fast tooling and production quotes
- Design-for-manufacture, mechanical design, reverse engineering
- One part, or a full program
A dedicated engineering team
Your own embedded team in Vietnam — led by veteran Japanese masters with 30 to 39 years each at Honda, backed by engineers whose experience spans Nissan, Toyota, and aerospace, working alongside the Japanese-trained Vietnamese engineers they've mentored. The discipline of a Japanese OEM, at Vietnamese cost.
- Led by Japanese masters — 30 to 39 years each at Honda
- Team experience across Nissan, Toyota, and aerospace engineering
- Alongside Japanese-trained Vietnamese engineers, held to the same standard
- From design and DFM through tooling and volume production — at a fraction of U.S. cost
For startups
From prototype to shipping — one partner.
Building something new? Bring us your prototype and we carry it through tooling, production, and finished product — shipped. One team for the whole journey, so a small company can build like a big one.
Your prototype in.
A path to commercial production out.
From design to volume to delivery — one point of contact, the whole way.
