ABOUT US

When developing a new product, or prototyping an abstract for-order design, time is everything. Every week matters. Every day counts. Heck, even every hour makes a difference - especially when you have an overly stressed project manager, lighting a fire under your ass chair.

We got sick of waiting days for prints to arrive. Every design iteration, another week lost. Deadlines forever slipping. So we broke the cycle, and did it ourselves.

Welcome to Mahi Tā 3D.

If you’re in Ōtautahi Christchurch, we can offer you parts overnight, size dependent. Our network is always expanding, and we hope to offer overnight delivery around the country.

We are more than just a 3D printing service!

We strive to:

- Offer a complete rapid prototyping service, able to quickly create or source parts from a wide range of manufacturing technologies.

- Provide product development & engineering resource for small businesses and individuals with a dream or idea.

- Support the transition from prototype to mass production, leveraging strong commercial relationships with high quality, trusted manufacturers in New Zealand and off-shore.
