Construction Specialized Trades
Today’s modern buildings rely on equipment and systems that must perform reliably, safely, and efficiently, and often within highly regulated environments. CSI serves manufacturers with precision-engineered components across the specialized trades such as elevators and lifts, HVAC systems, building automation and controls, fire and life-safety systems, plumbing solutions, and other critical MEP applications.
Whether it’s a machined valve housing, a fabricated bracket for a control panel, or an injection-molded component inside a smart building sensor, CSI delivers the quality, consistency, and reliability these systems demand. Our global manufacturing network and deep engineering collaboration help you reduce cost, improve manufacturability, and keep projects moving without interruption.
Our Capabilities
CSI manufactures precision components and turnkey assemblies used inside a wide variety of specialized construction systems — from elevators and environmental controls to plumbing infrastructure and connected-building devices. Our capabilities include both metal and plastic component manufacturing and allow us to support everything from low-volume specialty components to high-volume production programs.
Typical Components and Processes:
- Precision Components: Pistons, spools, fittings, gears, bearings, and drive components
- Machined Components: Brackets, couplings, housings, manifolds, shafts, bushings, reollers
- Stampings and Formed Parts: Mounting plates, sensor brackets, control panel components, covers, reinforcement plates
- Plastic Injection Molded Parts: Airflow baffles, cable mounts, sensor housings, covers, spacers, cable mounts
- Wire Harnesses: Sensor and controller cabling assemblies
- Fabricated and Welded Parts: Panels, mounts, handrails, brackets
Services:
- Engineering & Design Support: Material selection, manufacturability optimization, and co-development for performance and cost improvements.
- Rapid Prototyping: Fast, iterative sampling to validate new parts before full production.
- Global Sourcing & Logistics: Inventory positioning and supply chain management.
- Quality & Testing: APQP, PPAP, and CMM inspection capabilities.
- Kitting & Sub-Assembly: Line-ready kits that streamline installation and reduce job-site labor.
Ingenuity in Action: CSI for Construction Trades
We’ve supported OEMs across the full spectrum of building systems. Here are some recent examples:
- Reverse-engineered a latch assembly for a storage-door manufacturer, eliminating a proprietary component and cutting total part cost by roughly 20%.
- Bridged engineering-to-manufacturing gaps by refining designs, selecting commercially available materials, and developing repeatable processes that reduced cost and improved manufacturability.
