Grant Engineering and Manufacturing

SINCE 1982 Grant Engineering & Manufacturing has been helping customers create high-quality precision parts from injection-molded plastics. We are a full-service injection-molded plastics manufacturer and tooling company with the facilities and expertise to contribute whatever our customers need at any stage of the process—engineering input on manufacturability of product designs, complete tooling services, manufacturing, kitting and assembly to finished goods. From biotech to high tech, for niche markets and consumer products, our collaborative, responsive work style has helped engineers, product managers, and inventors successfully deliver high-precision parts that meet or exceed their expectations for quality, turnaround time, and cost.

We produce millions of parts every year, but we treat every customer and every project like the unique, one-of-a-kind opportunity it actually is. For us, that’s the beauty of manufacturing: every project is new and different, an exciting chance to think creatively about something that hasn’t been done before. That’s what attracted us to this business in the first place, and that’s still what keeps us going.

CAPABLE, FRIENDLY TEAM
On any given day, if you walk around our Richmond, CA, facility, you’ll see a dozen or so people working alongside robots on tasks varying from batch testing to packaging of a finished good. Most of us have worked together for more than a decade and no one has been here fewer than four years, so even though each person has a primary role, we have the skills and experience to back each other up on just about anything. As we’ve introduced robots and automation, the level of technical knowledge on our team has grown significantly, enabling us to fill even more technical roles for each other. With everyone trained properly and accustomed to adapting to different demands, the work stays interesting, our team builds skills, and we are all better equipped to respond quickly and creatively to our customers’ needs.

It’s a good group of people and a good place to work—the kind of place people don’t want to leave—which means that everyone knows each other well, has been trained and cross trained on our systems, and is personally invested in the quality of our work and the success of our business. Decision making is a group process and ideas about the shop and the business are welcomed, so everyone is working to improve our products and our company.
