Transform your confectionery dreams into reality with DPS.

We were a chocolatier for over ten years before we started designing and manufacturing chocolate moulds at DPS in 1995. We now work with all major retailers in the UK, giving us in-depth knowledge of the industry from artisanal chocolatiers to multinational food groups.

DPS takes great pride in being more than a manufacturer, providing our market insights, food manufacturing experience alongside our technical know-how in making moulds that makes your production process as smooth as possible.

Confectionery

We deliver a vertically integrated service, completely in house, which enables us to deliver top quality products with short lead times. Whether you need innovative custom moulds designed to last with the help of our creative team, have particular production challenges you need to pick our brains on, or need a solution-driven partner for a new R&D project, contact us today.

Designing economically priced thermoformed moulds to produce flat-backed chocolates is how the company began back in 1995. Whilst our techniques have progressed, in particular the introduction of sophisticated CNC tooling and the evolution of hybrid plastic materials, our flat follit moulds are as popular as ever. Take a look at our services below and don't hesitate to reach out with your project requirements; at DPS we listen, we consider, we deliver.
