Signature Plastics (commonly referred to as SP) is an injection moulding specialist located in Custer, Washington, USA. They are also a specialist keycap manufacturer, offering double-shot moulding, dye sublimation and pad printing options for keycap legends. In the keyboard community, Signature Plastics are a major supplier of group buy keycaps; typically they are called upon to provide double-shot keycaps, but they have also provided dye-sublimated PBT keycaps for the Granite group buy.
Signature Plastics run the Pimp My Keyboard group buy website. The oldest clear reference to this website is from 2012,<ref name="PMK" /> but no information seems to exist regarding when it was opened, or when it started offering group buys.
In 2013, Diatec released spherical double-shot keycaps for Filco keyboards, which are believed to be Signature Plastics SA family (to which they bear an exact likeless).<ref name="Filco" />
History[edit | edit source]
The company is a management buyout of Comptec Inc, the US arm of the former Canadian injection-molding manufacturer Comptec.<ref name="SP-buyout" /><ref name="NWBM-buyout" />
