Thermoformed electronics packaging refers to custom plastic trays, blisters, clamshells, and inserts engineered to protect, organize, display, and transport electronic components. Used in both consumer and industrial markets, these thermoformed plastic solutions are tailored to the shape and function of each part, providing reliable protection throughout the supply chain.
In industrial settings, thermoformed packaging is crucial for safeguarding sensitive components during manufacturing, assembly, and transportation. Key applications include:
ESD-Safe Trays: Protect electrostatic-sensitive devices like circuit boards and semiconductors from static discharge.
Dunnage/Work-in-Process/Shipping/Assembly Trays:
Facilitate efficient handling and organization of parts on assembly lines.
Designed for seamless integration with robotic systems and automated equipment.
Durable trays for repeated use in closed-loop logistics, reducing waste and cost.
For consumer electronics, thermoformed packaging enhances product presentation and protection. Common uses include:
Clamshell Packaging: Clear, tamper-evident enclosures that showcase products like headphones and accessories.
Blister Packs: Secure packaging for items such as batteries and small gadgets, combining visibility with protection
Custom Inserts: Tailored trays that hold products securely within retail boxes, improving unboxing experience.

At Dordan Manufacturing, we specialize in designing and producing high-quality thermoformed packaging solutions for both industrial and consumer electronics. Our in-house capabilities ensure rapid turnaround, precise fit, and compliance with industry standards.
At Dordan Manufacturing, we provide fully integrated packaging development—delivering speed, precision, and control from concept to production. By offering all core services under one roof, we eliminate delays, reduce costs, and ensure quality at every stage.
Custom Package Design: Our engineering team works directly with customers to design trays, clamshells, and inserts that meet the specific needs of electronic components—from size and weight to fragility and ESD sensitivity. We use CAD software and 3D printing for fast, accurate prototyping and design validation.
Tooling Fabrication: All production tooling is machined in-house using CNC equipment. This gives us tighter control over lead times, tolerances, and revisions—allowing faster iterations and higher quality final parts.
Thermoforming: We thermoform your packaging in our ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 certified facility using a wide range of materials, including ESD-safe plastics, PETG, HIPS, and conductive options. Whether for one-time use or reusable/returnable applications, we produce parts to exacting standards.
Validation & Quality Control: Our quality assurance process includes dimensional verification, fit testing, and—if required—full process validations to support highly regulated industries like medical and industrial electronics.
Cleanroom Manufacturing: We produce packaging for sensitive electronics and components in our ISO Class 8 cleanroom.

From initial concept through final delivery, Dordan provides a seamless experience—ensuring your electronics packaging is optimized for protection, efficiency, and manufacturability.
When packaging sensitive electronic components, quality isn’t optional—it’s essential. At Dordan, we operate under an ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 certified quality management system, ensuring every thermoformed part meets your exact specifications for fit, function, and reliability.
Dimensional Accuracy & Repeatability: Our in-house engineering and tooling teams design packaging with tight tolerances. We validate tooling and production processes to ensure consistent part-to-part performance—crucial for automated assembly and handling systems.
Material Verification: Whether using anti-static, conductive, or high-impact materials, we confirm that each meets performance and regulatory requirements for your application.
In-Process & Final Inspections: Our technicians inspect trays throughout production for dimensional conformity, material integrity, and cosmetic quality. Final QC ensures that trays are clean, consistent, and production-ready.
Documentation & Traceability: For industrial and regulated electronics markets, we provide detailed inspection reports, validation protocols, and traceability documentation upon request (Full Process Validations, PPAPs, other).
Cleanroom Manufacturing: For applications that are sensitive to particulate—such as sensors, medical electronics, or lab equipment—we offer ISO Class 8 cleanroom thermoforming to control particulate contamination.
Automated Optical Inspection: For measuring and maintaining CPK values for production validation
Risk-Based Engineering: For ensuring quality, consistency, and repeatability in every run.
At Dordan, we don’t just manufacture packaging—we engineer confidence. Our quality standards support even the most demanding electronics applications, from prototyping to full-scale production
