Heritage
Three generations of family experience in metal craftsmanship.
OUR STORYFROM TRADITION TO MODERN MANUFACTURING OUR APPROACH WHY WORK WITH AKBAR HANDICRAFTS?
Three generations. One passion for craftsmanship.
Akbar Handicrafts is a family-run manufacturing and export business with a long history in metal craftsmanship.
Our experience has been built through generations of working with metal, casting, finishing and artistic product development.
Over the years, traditional craftsmanship has evolved alongside modern technology. Today, we use modern design and mould-development methods while retaining the craftsmanship and attention to detail that have been passed through our family.
Metal casting is both a technical process and an art. Understanding metal behaviour, mould design, casting, finishing and surface treatment comes from experience.
We combine this traditional knowledge with modern tools such as:
- 3D product design
- Digital modelling
- 3D printing
- Modern mould development
- Prototype development
- Production tooling
- Contemporary finishing techniques
This allows us to take an idea and progressively develop it into a production-ready product.
We believe manufacturing should be a partnership. We listen to what our customers are trying to achieve and then work with them to develop the right product.
We consider:
- Your target market
- Your product positioning
- Your design requirements
- Target price
- Material requirements
- Product size
- Packaging
- Production quantities
- Retail requirements
The result is a product developed with a clear understanding of the customer's needs.
