Concept presentation for the FillGood filling and grouting tool (now known as the Vitrex Flexi-tip Sealant Smoother). This product was developed by Chute Design Associates, including:

• Concept Design
• Materials research
• Market research
• Detail engineering design
• Prototype design and manufacture
• Presentation drawings
• Presentation of all the above to key buyers in the building trade and DIY multiples
• Preparation of intellectual property portfolio (patents and design registration) in association with patent attorneys Atkinson Burrington.

Presentation comprises:

Initial prototypes These were produced by the 'rapid-prototyping' method, and consist of handles moulded in self-coloured resin (so no paint required) with tips moulded onto the ends in self-skinning polyurethane foam. The benefit of this technique was that it became possible to create a highly realistic model which performed in a very similar fashion to the final envisaged injection moulded product.

The latest version of extrusion. By employing the manufacturing method of co-extrusion, it has now been possible to create a profile consisting of both rigid (unplasticised) and flexible (plasticised) PVC. The benefit of this to the present application is that the separate foam strip is no longer required, thus: Improving the functionality and appearance of the product as a whole and... Eliminating an assembly cost
