Any size order can be accommodated from discreet single orders to multiyear contracts.

Orders as small as 1 item can be produced – however the cost of transportation
should be considered into the cost equation.

Prototype design assistance is available but the overall concept, form and function need to be formalized prior to prototyping.

Deliveries can be made anywhere in the world. Sunbird Manufacturing has all the modern shipping modes available including Air, Ocean, Rail, and multi modal as well.

For prototypes and first articles (1-50 units): 2-4 weeks. For production runs (100+ units): 4-8 weeks. Lead times vary based on complexity, quantity, and current capacity. We’ll give you a realistic timeline when we quote your project.

We’re flexible. We can produce as few as 1-50 units for prototyping and validation. However, our cost advantages are most meaningful at 100+ units, where manufacturing savings significantly exceed shipping costs. For production runs, we typically work with quantities of 100-5,000+ units.

Yes. For orders over 25kg, we offer DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping. This means we handle customs clearance, duties, and import logistics to your door. You pay one price—no surprise fees. For smaller orders shipped via courier, duties may apply upon delivery.

We primarily serve:
– Industrial equipment manufacturers
– Hardware startups (prototype to production)
– Aftermarket/replacement parts distributors
– Automation and robotics companies

We work with companies in the US, EU, Australia, and other international markets.

Both. We can quote and produce from technical drawings (preferred) or from physical samples (for reverse engineering). If you have a sample but no drawing, we can create the drawing for your approval before production.
