Manufacturing
Processes
From aluminum extrusions to consumer goods, DGP manages the full manufacturing lifecycle — delivering finished components, assemblies, and sourced products from a single trusted partner.
Aluminum Extrusions
DGP offers a massive pricing advantage by sourcing off the LME (London Metal Exchange) rather than the Midwest Premium, often saving customers hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. We handle the entire lifecycle of the extrusion, including secondary processes like anodizing, chamfering, painting, and precision machining. From mill finishes to complex medical-grade components, we provide high-quality aluminum at a fraction of domestic costs.
- LME Pricing Power: We price off the London Metal Exchange rather than the Midwest Premium, passing real savings to you.
- Turnkey Secondary Processes: Save on expensive domestic labor for anodizing, painting, punching, and machining.
Assemblies
Why manage ten different vendors when you can manage one? DGP specializes in creating 100% finished assemblies delivered to your door ready for immediate installation. By taking over the “meat and potatoes” of assembly, we free up your internal team to focus on the critical, high-profit components of your business.
- Single-Vendor Simplicity: Stop managing ten different suppliers; we deliver 100% finished, ready-to-install assemblies.
- Immediate ROI: Our assemblies save thousands in internal labor costs and assembly-line touches per year.
Casting Solutions
We provide versatile casting solutions tailored to your material needs and performance requirements, including die-casting, investment casting, sand casting, and gravity casting. Our team manages the entire transition from raw cast to secondary machining, ensuring that every component meets rigorous quality standards. We help you navigate the constraints of domestic manufacturing by providing a global supply chain for complex, multi-process cast parts.
- Process Versatility: Whether you need die-casting, investment casting, sand casting, or gravity castings, we match your project to the right facility.
- Material Expertise: We navigate complex metal requirements to ensure your cast parts are durable, precise, and cost-effective.
Copper Tubing
DGP sources and supplies high-quality copper tubing for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. Leveraging our global manufacturing network, we provide consistent material grades, precise dimensional tolerances, and competitive pricing — backed by the same hands-on quality control we bring to every product we source.
- Global Sourcing: Access a wide range of copper tubing grades and dimensions through our international manufacturing network.
- Quality Assurance: Every order is validated for material compliance and dimensional accuracy before shipment.
Forging
At DGP, we view forging as a key tool for process optimization. Many of our clients come to us with expensive, multi-part assemblies that require significant welding and labor. We help “evolve” those designs into high-strength forged components that eliminate the need for secondary welding. By forging the part to its near-net shape, we reduce material waste and provide a superior, more durable product that arrives at your facility ready for final assembly.
- Structural Integrity: We convert expensive weldments into high-strength forged parts that perform better and cost less.
- Waste Reduction: Forging creates a near-net-shape part, reducing the time and money spent on secondary machining.
Stamping
Precision and consistency are the hallmarks of our stamping services. Whether you need high-volume components or intricate brackets for industrial use, DGP provides the tooling expertise to ensure every run meets your exact tolerances. We handle the entire lifecycle — from initial die design and material selection to the finished, plated part. By leveraging our global supply chain, we offer the high-speed production capacity of a major manufacturer with the personalized service of a domestic partner.
- High-Volume Efficiency: Perfect for rapid production of precision metal components with consistent quality across every run.
- Tooling Expertise: We manage the tooling process from design to production to ensure long-term part accuracy.
Weldments
DGP provides professional-grade weldments that bridge the gap between raw components and finished assemblies. We specialize in managing complex welding projects that require secondary processes like plating or specialized coating. Instead of managing multiple vendors for fabrication, welding, and finishing, you can rely on DGP to deliver a complete, quality-checked weldment. We take the redundant processes off your plate, allowing your skilled welders to focus on your most critical, high-margin manufacturing tasks.
- Certified Quality: We provide high-quality structural welding and plating, ensuring your components are built to last.
- Streamlined Supply Chain: We handle the welding, plating, and finishing so you receive a complete, ready-to-use component.
Injection Molding
At DGP, we take the unknowns out of international plastics sourcing. Whether you are developing high-volume consumer goods or specialized industrial components, we manage the entire injection molding lifecycle — from initial mold design and material selection to final production. We physically validate our partner factories to ensure your tools are built to last and your tolerances are met every time. By leveraging our global network, we provide the scalability of a major manufacturer while maintaining the direct, domestic accountability our clients depend on.
- Scalable Production: From small-batch prototypes to millions of units, we provide high-quality plastic components at global-market prices.
- Complex Geometries: We handle intricate mold designs that maintain tight tolerances for both industrial and consumer applications.
Machining
We view machining as the ultimate tool for precision production. Many of the parts we supply — whether they start as aluminum extrusions or raw castings — require complex secondary machining to meet final specifications. DGP handles everything from CNC milling and turning to intricate chamfering and tapping. By delivering a 100% finished, machined component, we eliminate your internal “soft costs” and free up your high-value machines and labor for your most critical manufacturing tasks.
- Precision Execution: We handle complex secondary machining, including CNC turning, milling, and tapping, to finish your parts to exact specs.
- Global Capacity: Access high-end machining capabilities without the high-end domestic price tag.
Trailer Parts & Accessories
Our business history has led us to develop a deep expertise in trailer components. We have funneled that expertise into a dedicated company: Hitchworks. Hitchworks works with you to develop and source products for the trailer industry — from fenders and jacks to hitches and hardware — backed by DGP’s global supply chain and quality standards.
- Industry Expertise: Decades of experience in trailer component design and global sourcing for OEM manufacturers.
- Dedicated Brand: Hitchworks provides specialized OEM services built specifically for the trailer industry.
Consumer Goods
DGP bridges the gap between global sourcing and local retail. Whether you are looking to develop custom textiles like dog pillows or branded apparel like high-quality headwear, we handle the factory validation and sourcing for you. We physically visit factories to verify their capabilities, ensuring that your consumer goods are manufactured to your exact color, shape, and material specs — minus the risk of low-quality foreign manufacturing.
- Relationship-Based Sourcing: We don't just find products; we build factory relationships to ensure your hats, pillows, or gear are top-tier.
- Verified Quality: We take the unknowns out of consumer importing by physically validating every factory and product sample.
