Services
PJ Bowers provides complete project support from initial concept through to finished supply. Services include material selection and technical advice, CAD design, rapid prototyping, product development, custom manufacturing, short and long production runs, adhesive application, lamination, kitting and assembly.

We also provide project and budget management, quality documentation, packaging coordination, inventory and supply planning, and domestic and international logistics.

Industries and Applications
For defence and aerospace, PJ Bowers manufactures precision tool-control inserts, protective case interiors, deployable equipment packaging, component cushioning, ESD-safe packaging, vehicle and aircraft insulation, vibration-control products, and fire-retardant anti-static assemblies for sensitive equipment.

Mining and heavy-industry applications include equipment protection, vibration damping, sealing, acoustic treatment, machinery components and heavy-duty transport packaging.

Additional applications include medical positioning and protective products, electronics packaging, construction expansion joints and bridgefoams, HVAC insulation, acoustic and thermal treatment, marine buoyancy, transport protection, conservation packaging and custom components for general manufacturing.

PJ Bowers combines specialist material knowledge, advanced manufacturing and complete project support to deliver reliable, fit-for-purpose foam solutions from concept through to production and distribution.
