Testrite Introduces New Manufacturing as a Service (Maas) Program

Introducing MaaS from Testrite Holdings: your one-stop shop for OEM Manufacturing of visual displays, telescopic aluminum tubing, and much more!

 

Are you looking for a one-stop shop to satisfy all your custom display, communication and hardware needs? Look no further than Testrite Holdings! With over 104 years of experience in manufacturing and service capabilities, Testrite is now proud to offer MaaS (Manufacturing as a Service) – a revolutionary solution that will make it easier than ever to get the telescopic tubing and other visual display solutions you need. 

 

By taking advantage of Testrite MaaS service, you can be sure of getting quality products that are tailored to your specific needs.

What is Manufacturing as a Service (MaaS)?

Manufacturing as a Service (MaaS) is an innovative solution for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), B2B businesses, inventors and entrepreneurs who are looking to outsource some or all aspects of manufacturing.  It is a cost-effective, efficient, and reliable way to handle manufacturing needs without sacrificing quality or control.  

 

MaaS makes it easy for businesses to scale their operations without having to invest in costly new equipment, hire more personnel or accumulate more inventory, especially when they are developing new products and product lines that might require multiple iterations.    

 

Leverage Testrite’s 104 years of tooling and know how and expansive inventory, in addition to a strong labor force. Testrite’s MaaS customers are finding it more efficient to have Testrite manufacture, kit, and drop ship, all from one location. 

 

By outsourcing aspects of the manufacturing process to an MaaS provider, businesses can quickly adapt to changing market conditions and customer needs without any disruption to their production.  

 

Get to Know Testrite’s MaaS program

Our new MaaS program is made possible by digital enhancements and new e-commerce capabilities.  We’ve made it easier than ever for customers and prospects to find exactly what they need faster and easier.   

 

The Testrite MaaS program is supported by all three subsidiaries of Testrite Holdings - Testrite Visual, Testrite OEM and Testrite Aluminum. 

 

• Testrite Visual - www.testrite.com offers standard and custom visual display, visual communication, visual presentation and print solutions for the retail, hospitality, design, display and related industries,     

 

• Testrite OEM www.testriteoem.com offers custom telescopic tubing assemblies leveraging aluminum tubing, locks, custom brackets, and more for OEM applications in quantity 25+,

 

• Testrite Aluminum www.testritealuminum.com offers easy to purchase thin wall aluminum tubing, thin wall aluminum extrusions, round tubing, square tubing, rectangular tubing, telescopic tubing, extrusions and other accessories all cut and ordered to specific size and quantity needed.  This service is perfect for inventors, fabricators, and manufacturers looking to source hard to find thin wall aluminum tubing 

 

Between these three websites, we have 100+ videos demonstrating, with some videos demonstrating 30+ different design capabilities and options. These videos are designed to showcase Testrite’s US Manufacturing capabilities, from steel sheet bending to aluminum sheet bending, from telescopic aluminum tubing to custom color powder coating.

 

Customers can choose from over 2000 standard visual products including snap frames, fabric frames and aluminum slat wall stands or our MaaS program supports product customization.  Everything and anything can be customized including custom shapes, sizes, colors.

 

These enhancements represent our commitment to doubledown on creating an entire ecosystem for manufacturing.     

 

Benefits of Testrite's MaaS program?

At Testrite, we have created our MaaS program based on 104-years in business and enhanced manufacturing capabilities that we have developed over the last twenty years. 

 

We have become a company with a catalog of over 2000 standard products, but we realize there is still a need for custom solutions and this is where we shine as an organization.  

 

“We invite our customers to bring us their design challenges and we will work hard to manufacture a great solution”, says Testrite President, Jeffrey Rubin. 

 

Testrite’s MaaS program is true manufacturing.  Customers are no longer limited to what is on the shelf.  As an added benefit we are a US manufacturer. We sell manufacturer direct and through valuable partners around the world.  We are NOT an importer.  This means that we can turn around custom parts, pieces and complete fabrications in days or weeks, not months. 

 

The custom capabilities of Testrite’s MaaS program includes:  

 

Access to Services

 

With Testrite's MaaS program, companies can get access to services such as laser cutting, metal bending, fabric printing, roll printing, and rigid printing. Testrite excels at manufacturing graphic frames for all graphic types including fabric graphic frames, snapframes, drop in frames, magnetic graphic frames, and more. These capabilities marry with Testrite’s deep experience manufacturing telescopic aluminum tubing, powder coating, and 3D printing.  In addition, Testrite offers in-house and drop ship services, the finishing touch to custom hardware and fabrication.

 

Custom Products 

 

With Testrite’s MaaS program, customers can develop custom products faster and easier. Custom products include graphic frames, aluminum tubing, round tubing, square tubing, rectangular tubing, custom hardware, custom frames, and custom snap frames all from one source.   Customers can work directly with Testrite to design, prototype and manufacture new custom products or order individual parts and pieces to fabricate the product in their own environment.  

 

Prototype Development 

 

During the product development process prototypes can assist with the design, engineering and manufacturing process.  Testrite’s MaaS program can help with prototype development by providing a solution where inventors and innovators can purchase individual parts and pieces to refine their design (volume and fit dependent). 

 

Test & Troubleshoot 

 

With Testrite's MaaS solutions, companies may be able to save money in the product development process.  With new products, it may be necessary to try multiple design iterations, test applications, and troubleshoot issues.  With MaaS companies can buy small quantities of the pieces and parts they need for prototype and product development at a much lower cost. 

 

This makes Testrite the one-stop-shop for all of your manufacturing needs, and you can be assured that Testrite's experts will handle your projects with a commitment to quality, precision, and on-time delivery. 

 

Reduced Product Development Cost

 

MaaS is a financially sound investment and may create opportunities for cost savings.  Innovation seems to be moving at the speed of light today and it can be challenging and costly for organizations to continuously adapt staffing and operations to meet these needs. With Testrite’s MaaS solution, businesses can remain innovative and continue to bring products to life while working with a third party manufacturing partner.   

 

With Testrite MaaS, you get a partner committed to providing you with the best possible service and a reliable, efficient supply chain.  Because we manufacture in the U.S., our supply chain is shorter, “greener”, and we can offer customizable solutions tailored to your needs faster and easier.

 

Who Can Benefit from Testrite’s MaaS Program?

Testrite’s MaaS Program was designed to support many different industries and their visual, display, communication and custom hardware needs.  

 

Visual Display and Visual Merchandisers

 

Visual Display, visual communication, and visual presentations tools are at the heart of Testrite Visual.  We have developed a product catalog with over 2000 sku’s but we realize that custom solutions are sometimes needed.  Our MaaS program allows us to create custom display, custom hardware, custom visual merchandising solutions faster and easier. 

 

This includes custom snapframes, custom powder coating, custom aluminum frames, telescoping tubing, custom graphics integration, and much more. We also offer signage and brand solutions. For example, we can provide custom signholders to dropship to 1500 stores that meet aesthetic requirements and offer an environmentally friendly solution.   We can work with a retailer who is looking for a fabric lightbox that is integrated with its existing standards with brackets made my Testrite.

 

Printers & Print Partners

 

Testrite partners with hundreds of print partners around the country.  Our MaaS program makes it possible for these businesses to excel in their zone of genius - print and graphic products and solutions - and let Testrite manufacture the hardware that holds those graphics.  As part of the services for our valued print partners, we can provide private label and drop ship capabilities to one store or thousands.    

 

We specialize in 3D printing in-house to marry with our hardware, so we are able to provide even more ways to create custom solutions.

 

Scientific & Medical Devices  

 

From scientific instruments to collecting air samples, disability aids and medical devices for diagnosis and treatment of specific conditions, Testrite OEM has worked with some of the leading innovators in the scientific and medical community.  We make it easy to design, develop and prototype new solutions faster and easier.  

 

Outdoor Enthusiasts & Hobbies 

 

Testrite has partnered with designers, inventors, and entrepreneurs working to develop hunting equipment, fishing equipment, custom outdoor hardware, equipment, lasers, and even custom grills.

 

The possibilities are literally unlimited because every product we make can be tailored to fit a specific need.  This includes custom shapes, custom sizes and custom colors. We work with customers on any design challenge and encourage custom requests. 

 

With 104 years of experience, you can trust Testrite’s MaaS program to deliver a great experience.

How It Works

If you are looking to expand your product line, enhance your visual display solutions, create a new piece of equipment or just test new hardware, Testrite’s Manufacturing as a Service (MaaS) program provides businesses with an all-in-one solution.  

 

In some cases you may be able to buy exactly what you need from one of our existing websites as we have enhanced our ecommerce capabilities.  If you do not find all the parts and pieces you need, then your MaaS project begins with a simple conversation.  

 

It is easy to begin the conversation with multiple communication channels below.

 

Option 1: Fill out a custom request form at TestriteVisual.com https://testrite.com/custom-requests/cdr-form/ 

 

Option 2: Request a fast custom quote at testriteoem.com  https://www.testriteoem.com/pages/rfq/ 

 

Option 3: Call us at 888.873.2735. We are 100% US based manufacturer and ship from Hackensack, NJ with sales teams located around the country.  

 

Option 4: Email us at customdisplays@testrite.com and start the conversation.   

 

You do not have to speak to a dedicated salesperson for MaaS projects.  All of our salespeople work for and service customers from Testrite Visual, Testrite OEM and Testrite Aluminum and are knowledgeable in our MaaS capabilities.  

 

Our team has combined experience of over 100 years in visual display, hardware manufacturing and graphics integration.  Put our expertise to work for you. Whether you want to talk on the phone, email, order online or request a custom quote we make it easy for anyone to get in touch with us to discuss their project needs.  

 

The US Made Advantage 

There are more MaaS providers available today than ever before, but Testrite offers one unique advantage.  We are a US manufacturer.  One of the challenges we see with customers is that when they want a custom solution they may need to wait for months for their items to be manufactured.  This may be due to manufacturing limitations, restrictions, schedules, lead times and transport times.   As a US manufacturer, we can do custom solutions faster than overseas export companies because we are manufacturer direct.  Most of the time we roll out custom solutions in days or weeks, not months! 

 

As a US manufacturer, all of our staff is also US based.  That means you can pick up the phone and talk to any of our knowledge staff working out of our office in Hackensack, NJ.  This means faster response time, faster answers to questions, requests and order lead times.   

 

Our talented team consists of sales staff, sales support staff, logistics managers, graphic designers and more.  We will work closely with you to understand your needs. In some cases, we can help with design, development, engineering, prototype and other fabrication support.   We have had clients give us a drawing on a paper napkin before to start the conversation!  Whether you need one stock item or five thousand custom frames, we are committed to being your source for quality and value in visual merchandising.

Next Steps

We would love to be your MaaS partner of choice to help you expand product or service offerings and/or manufacturing capabilities.   MaaS offers a variety of high-quality display, hardware and graphic products that are manufactured in-house and can be customized to meet each customer’s individual needs.

 

When you get in touch, provide us with as much information as possible about your project and we will let you know how we can help. We will provide you with product and configuration recommendations, lead times, accurate pricing and everything else you need for the best MaaS experience.

 

We look forward to speaking with you!
