Highlights

Geochord can develop breakthrough sustainable products for your brand. [www.geochord.com]

With over 25 years of collective product development experience, our team has brought many successful, award-winning designs to market.

With a unique focus on developing sustainable products, we can deliver innovative solutions that not only exceed your customers' expectations, but also minimize impact to the environment.

Our core expertise is based on a proven process that maintains design intent from concept through production, using Pro-Engineer as a key tool to capture 3D design form and details -- and working closely with the end manufacturer using a top-down design "master model" approach. ProE parts are defined to a production-ready level, including drafted / thin-walled housings designed according to the associated material properties & manufacturing processes.

Other services include: prototype build coordination; competitive product benchmarking; materials, components & manufacturing technologies research; prior art research for patentability.

Current and previous work include products for companies such as: Microsoft, Steelcase, Google, Light Corporation, Motorola, Acco Brands, Riddell Sports

Clear communication is essential in any product development effort, and we provide regular updates on project progress. We can also be reached directly by phone during normal business hours.
