About PMD Designs
Founded in Toronto in 2023, built around the work of making
PMD Designs began as a practical bridge between custom apparel, physical printing, and rapid 3D prototyping. Our focus has stayed on the machines, the materials, and the steps that get a finished piece into hands.

Our evolution
From a single workshop to a full production studio
The studio started with a focused set of tools for garment decoration and sign production. As demand grew for prototypes and specialised items, we added additive manufacturing and NFC work, expanding the range without changing how we approach each job: scope it clearly, build it carefully, and deliver what was agreed.
Each step of that growth followed a practical need from real projects. Facility upgrades were chosen for consistency of output, so orders from one sample run to a bulk batch meet the same standard.
Manufacturing philosophy
Standards across every method we run
Garment decoration depends on fabric type, ink or heat transfer compatibility, and wash-test planning. We check substrate and placement before production begins, so the finished print holds up to regular wear and washing.
Vinyl adhesion for decals and signs depends on surface preparation, application temperature, and the correct cut and weeding process. Additive manufacturing follows the same discipline: material choice, layer settings, and post-processing are set for the part’s use, and specialised 3D products are scoped through a quote before production.
