With decades of industry experience, PSI is a vertically integrated aluminum manufacturer supporting appliance OEMs from design to production. Our in-house processes allow us to produce high-quality aluminum components for both major and small appliances, including refrigerators, ovens, washers and dryers, HVAC units, and countertop devices.
From structural brackets to decorative trim, we handle the full production process under one roof, including extrusion, machining, stamping, finishing, and assembly. We deliver both functional and cosmetic aluminum parts that meet stringent appliance industry standards.
Components PSI Manufactures for Appliance OEMs
At PSI, we can produce the following appliance components to meet our customers’ unique requirements:
- Structural Brackets & Frames. We manufacture sturdy mounting plates, brackets, and frame profiles designed to secure heavy components such as motors and compressors. Each piece is extruded and fabricated to precise dimensions for an exact fit, ensuring long-term durability and reliable performance.
- Control Panel Enclosures. Our custom aluminum bezels and housings protect sensitive electronic controls in appliances like ovens and laundry systems while maintaining a clean user-facing appearance. Tight-tolerance fabrication ensures both protection and aesthetic appeal.
- Decorative Trim and Bezels. PSI produces trim strips, edgings, and bezels that enhance appliance exteriors, including cooktops, oven doors, and refrigerator panels. Our tight-tolerance extrusions are designed to screw or snap into assemblies, achieving a sleek finish that aligns with modern appliance designs.
- Handles and Pulls. We design and fabricate ergonomic, high-strength handles for ovens, refrigerators, and other appliances. Often made with custom extrusion or tubular fabrication, we produce durable handles that can be anodized or finished with a chrome-like appearance for aesthetic appeal.
- Heat Shields and Panels. Using thin-gauge aluminum, we produce reflector panels, shields, and liners that direct or insulate heat in HVAC systems and cooking appliances. Our stamping and fabrication capabilities ensure these parts withstand high operating temperatures.
- Housings and Chassis Components. PSI supplies lightweight, corrosion-resistant housings for motors, fans, and pumps, as well as internal chassis parts such as blower fan scrolls, tubing, and structural supports. These parts are critical for appliance performance and longevity.
- Venting Components. From stamped louvers to extruded grilles and ducts, our venting parts maintain shape under heat, resist rust, and support efficient airflow for range hoods, dryer exhaust systems, and other ventilation needs.
PSI’s Manufacturing Capabilities
At PSI, we give our customers access to some of the most reliable manufacturing capabilities, with solutions such as:
Custom Aluminum Extrusions
We produce tight-tolerance profiles in 6000-series aluminum for handles, trims, and decorative accents. Our process accommodates unique shapes, efficient tooling, and quick turnaround without sacrificing quality.
CNC Machining and Fabrication
Our multi-axis machining capabilities enable us to add slots, holes, threads, and cutouts so parts are installation-ready. Additionally, we can provide fabrication services, including bending, cutting, and light welding, to meet complex design requirements.
Metal Stamping
Our high-speed stamping operations produce consistent, repeatable parts such as brackets, plates, and shielding. We can integrate forming, threading, or hardware insertion when needed.
Finishing — Anodizing and Powder Coating
We offer clear or dyed anodizing for corrosion resistance and appliance-grade cosmetic finishes, as well as powder coating in standard or custom colors. These finishes improve scratch resistance and long-term appearance for consumer-facing parts.
Assembly and Kitting
PSI assembles components such as handles, trim kits, and brackets with hardware, gaskets, or labels included. We also provide line-ready kitting and protective packaging to streamline client assembly processes.
Certifications and Quality Assurance
PSI is ISO 9001:2015 certified, with strict process controls and documentation in place. We perform dimensional and surface inspections at multiple production stages, offer material traceability and supporting certifications when needed, and have extensive experience meeting the cosmetic and fit/finish standards of the appliance industry.
