Prototypes, products & small-run runs — made on the Island.

Island Prototype is a workshop and design studio combining 3D printing, vinyl cutting, plotting, PCB fabrication and Arduino / ESP32 / LoRa firmware to turn ideas into working hardware — fast.

  • 15+ yrsindustry experience
  • 1 - 100+unit batches
  • UK-madeon the IoW
  • End-to-enddesign → build

From sketch to shipped unit — under one roof.

Pick a single capability or hand us the whole project. Everything is produced in our Isle of Wight workshop with full design support.

  • 3D Printing

    FDM prints for functional prototypes, jigs, enclosures and end-use parts in engineering-grade materials.

  • Vinyl Decal Cutting

    Precision-cut signage, labels, marine graphics and one-off decals — including weather-grade and reflective stocks.

  • Plotting

    Pen plotting for technical drawings, schematics, templates and limited-edition print runs.

  • Soldering & PCB Fabrication

    Hand-soldered prototypes, SMD rework, through-hole assembly and small-batch PCB build & test.

  • Software

    From web dashboards to embedded C — including HR-software experience, integrations and bespoke tooling.

  • Arduino · ESP32 · LoRa

    Connected devices, remote sensors and long-range telemetry for coastal, marine and field-deployed applications.

A small studio with a wide bench.

Island Prototype is run out of Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, combining product design, electronics and software under a single roof. We work directly with founders, engineers and in-house teams across aviation, marine, catering, medical devices and HR software — taking ideas from sketch to small-run reality without the overhead of a big agency.
