Texture Finish Options
We offer a wide range of plastic-prototype surface textures, from functional finishes to premium presentation grades. Roughness parameters are measured per ISO 4287.
Leather-Effect Texture
Simulates genuine-leather appearance and soft-touch feel - ideal for premium consumer electronics and automotive interiors. Typical Ra 1.6–6.3 μm, Rz 8–30 μm, texture depth 0.05–0.15 mm. Improves perceived quality and grip comfort.
01
Matte / Fine Grain Finish
Uniform low-gloss surface that helps hide fingerprints and minor scratches. Typical Ra 0.8–3.2 μm, Rz 4–15 μm. Common on medical-device handles and appliance housings.
02
Heavy Grain / Coarse Texture
Pronounced particulate feel with strong anti-slip performance. Typical Ra 3.2–12.5 μm, Rz 15–50 μm. Suited to tool housings and industrial prototypes.
03
High Gloss / Mirror Finish
Optical-grade smooth surface. Ra ≤0.4 μm, Rz ≤2 μm. Suited to transparent parts and high-end display models.
04
Custom Texture
We can replicate specific design patterns, geometric textures, or brand-logo textures from CAD files or physical reference samples.
Each texture option is supported by physical sample plaques (macro and multi-angle) showing real Ra/Rz values and recommended applications.

Industry Applications
Textured plastic prototypes are widely used to validate appearance, tactile feel, functionality, and user experience early in development.
Automotive interior parts:
leather-effect and soft-touch grain textures for dashboards, center consoles, and handles. Used by Tier-1 automotive suppliers to optimize grip comfort and reduce design iterations.
Consumer-electronics enclosures:
matte and custom textures that improve anti-slip performance and premium feel. Used in appearance validation and user testing.
Medical-device handles:
uniform sand textures combined with biocompatible materials for comfortable grip and easy cleaning. Supports ergonomic validation and regulatory sample preparation.
Home-appliance appearance validation:
combinations of high-gloss and leather textures simulate final production quality for visual evaluation.
