Why Choose Us?
01 / Precision Prototypes
We deliver high-quality, investor-ready prototypes using advanced FDM 3D printing. Every enclosure is tailored to your design needs with clean detailing and accurate fit.
02 / Tech-Focused
Encuro is built for IoT and emerging technologies — not generic boxes. We understand PCBs, sensors, batteries, and antennas, so your enclosures are functional and future-ready.
03 / Branded & Custom
Stand out from the crowd. We integrate your logo and company branding directly into your enclosure, helping you showcase your product to investors, customers, and partners.
04 / Scalable Path
From a handful of prototypes to your first small-batch runs, Encuro grows with you step by step. Start fast with 1–10 prototypes, then scale confidently as your product gains traction.
What We Do
At Encuro, we create custom enclosures that bring your technology to life. From first prototypes to investor demos and small-batch runs, we make sure your hardware looks professional, functions reliably, and represents your brand.
How We’re Different
-
Prototype-first – fast turnaround: days, not weeks.
-
Custom-fit – designed around your PCB, sensors, and connectors.
-
Brand-ready – your company logo and identity integrated directly into the enclosure.
-
Scalable – start with a few units, scale up as your product gains traction.
-
UK-based – reduced lead times and no import hassle.
Why It Matters
Off-the-shelf boxes don’t reflect your product or your brand. Expensive design agencies slow you down. Encuro gives you custom enclosures that fit, look professional, and deliver impact — exactly when you need them.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1. Whats the turnaround time? Typical turnaround for prototypes is 2–4 working days, depending on complexity and finishing requirements. Batch orders generally take 2–6 weeks, influenced by order size, material choice, and whether tooling or post-processing (like painting or coatings) is required. We’ll provide an estimated lead time upfront, and for urgent projects, we can offer expedited services where possible.
Q2. What industries do you serve? We specialise in enclosures for IoT, electronics, and technology startups, MedTech/ health, consumer gadgets, wearables & fitness tech, cleantech/ energy, robotics/ automation, agritech, smart homes and construction tech.
Q3. What file formats do you accept? We typically work with STEP and STL files, as these are the most reliable for 3D printing and CAD adjustments. If you only have a sketch, drawing, or another format (e.g. IGES, OBJ), send it over — we can usually convert or recreate it into a printable file.
Q4. Do you offer design tweaks? Yes — we can make light CAD adjustments to ensure your enclosure prints correctly and fits your components. This might include things like adjusting wall thickness, resizing standoffs, or refining cut-outs. For bigger changes (e.g. a full redesign), we’ll let you know upfront and agree the scope before moving forward.
Q5. Do you offer design support if I don’t have CAD files? Yes — if you don’t yet have a complete design, our team can provide CAD support to get your enclosure production-ready. We can work from sketches, technical requirements, or modify existing models to ensure they meet manufacturing standards. This is particularly useful for startups without in-house engineers. Our design assistance covers sizing for electronics, wall thickness, ventilation, and compliance considerations, so you can move smoothly from idea to prototype.
Q6. Are your enclosures compliant with regulations? Yes — we design and manufacture with compliance in mind. Common standards we consider include IP ratings for dust/water resistance, flame retardancy (UL94 standards), and EMC shielding where required. While we don’t directly certify your product, we ensure enclosures are designed to meet the necessary requirements for CE, UKCA, or other certifications. We’ll also advise if your use case requires specific testing or materials to achieve compliance.
Q7. What materials do you use for enclosures? We use engineering-grade plastics such as PLA, ABS and PETG for prototypes, ensuring strength and reliability. For higher-volume orders, SLS nylon is also available to give you production-ready durability.
Q8. Can you handle both prototypes and larger production runs? Yes — we specialise in helping customers from the early prototype stage right through to full production. Whether you need a one-off enclosure to test fit and function, a small batch of 50–200 units for pilot projects, or a larger run of 500+ units, we scale with your needs. Many of our customers start with 2–3 prototypes, then move into batch orders once the design is validated. This way, you save time and money by working with a single partner throughout your product’s journey.
Q9. Do you ship across the UK? Yes — we ship to every part of the UK, including England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. All orders are securely packaged to protect your enclosures in transit. Prototypes are sent via tracked courier for quick delivery, while larger batch orders are palletised or sent by freight where necessary. We also provide estimated delivery times at the point of order so you know exactly when to expect your parts.
