Custom Metal Stamping Services — High-Volume Progressive Die Stamping
View Full Metal Stamping Parts Gallery >>
Talan Products is a custom metal stamping company based in Cleveland, Ohio, specializing in high-volume progressive die stamping for manufacturers across North America. We’ve been stamping metal since 1986 — and we still have our first four customers. That kind of retention doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because we consistently deliver the right part, at the right price, on time, run after run — and because we work every day to be our customers’ best-value manufacturing partner.
Our focus is medium to high volume production — the range where progressive die stamping delivers its greatest cost advantage and where long-term supplier relationships create the most value. Whether you run 5,000 parts a year or 5 million, our fleet of 25+ presses, our in-house tool room, and our ISO-certified quality system are built to support your program for the long term.
Why Manufacturers Choose Talan — and Stay for Decades
| 40 Years. 4 Original Customers. Still Running.
We opened our doors in 1986. Our first four customers are still with us today. In an industry where suppliers get benchmarked constantly and price pressure never stops, that kind of retention doesn’t happen on piece price alone. It happens because we become a genuine part of our customers’ supply chain — reliable, responsive, and continuously focused on their total cost of ownership. We don’t just want your next order. We want to be your stamping partner for the next 40 years. |
We Are Your Manufacturing Partner, Not Just Your Stamping Vendor
Most stamping companies take your drawing and quote it. We take your drawing and ask whether it’s optimized. Our engineers review every new part for Design for Manufacturability (DFM) opportunities — ways to reduce tooling cost, simplify geometry, eliminate secondary operations, or consolidate multiple parts into a single stamping. That engineering work happens before we build a die, which is the only time it’s free.
| Case Study — Part Consolidation: A customer came to us with an assembly built from three separate stamped components — each manufactured, handled, packaged, and shipped independently before assembly. Our engineers redesigned it as a single progressive die stamping. The result: one part number instead of three, eliminated inter-operation handling, reduced packaging and logistics costs, and a meaningfully lower total cost per assembly — with no compromise in function or fit. This is what partnering with Talan looks like. |
In-House Tool Room — Control, Speed, and Lifetime Die Maintenance
We design and build our own progressive dies in-house using SolidWorks and a fully equipped tool room. This matters practically: we control quality and lead time on new tooling, we can make modifications quickly without waiting on an outside tool shop, and we maintain your dies for the life of your program. Your tooling investment is protected. Progressive die tooling at Talan ranges from $10,000 for straightforward dies to $350,000 for complex multi-station tools — and we tell you exactly what’s needed and why.
Material Management — Sourcing Is Part of Our Value
Material cost is often the largest single line item in a stamping program. Our dedicated material management team monitors markets, maintains qualified supplier relationships, and actively works to optimize sourcing costs on your behalf — ensuring you’re getting the right material at the right price, consistently, run after run.
Cleveland, Ohio — Strategically Central for U.S. Manufacturing
Our facility is in Cleveland, Ohio — one of the most logistically advantaged manufacturing locations in the United States. We’re within efficient shipping distance of manufacturers nationwide, with direct access to steel service centers, major freight corridors, and a deep manufacturing workforce. The majority of Talan’s customers are outside Ohio — which speaks to our standing as a national-caliber supplier. For customers evaluating total landed cost, Cleveland’s central location is a genuine and quantifiable advantage.

Engineering Services That Reduce Your Total Cost
Design for Manufacturability (DFM)
Every new part at Talan goes through a DFM review before we quote tooling. We look for ways to simplify geometry, reduce die stations, optimize material selection, and eliminate features that add cost without adding function. Changes at the design stage cost nothing. Changes after tooling is built are expensive. DFM is built into our standard process — not an add-on service.
Early Supplier Involvement (ESI)
Our Early Supplier Involvement program invites you to bring us in during the concept or early design phase — before drawings are finalized. When we’re involved early, we can influence part design in ways that reduce tooling cost, improve formability, and lower long-run piece price. ESI customers consistently achieve better outcomes than those who arrive with a finished drawing. We welcome that conversation at any stage.
Quality You Can Count On — ISO 9001:2015 Certified
Talan Products is ISO 9001:2015 certified. Our quality management system covers incoming material inspection, in-process monitoring, and final inspection on every production run. Every run is documented. Traceability is maintained. Our Zeiss CMM and Keyence visual system provide in-house dimensional and optical verification — no outside lab required.
ISO certification is the floor, not the ceiling. What matters is that the parts arriving at your dock are right — every time, every run, year after year. Our 40-year customer retention record is the most honest measure of that standard.
Considering Reshoring? We Are a Proven Domestic Alternative.
If you’re evaluating a domestic U.S. stamping supplier to replace or supplement an overseas source, Talan is worth a serious conversation. The cost advantages of offshore stamping have narrowed significantly as labor rates, logistics costs, quality risks, and supply chain disruption have increased. Many customers have moved programs to Talan from overseas and found that total landed cost — freight, duties, inventory carrying cost, and quality escapes — is competitive with or better than their offshore source.
We’re not the right fit for every program. But if you’re running medium to high volumes of carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, or copper alloy stampings, let’s run the numbers together.
