About Us
Part of the DCC Automation Group
Custom Metal Designs is part of the DCC Automation Group. CMD handles bottles on the empty side; DCC picks them up once they're filled. Between us, we cover the whole line.
In summary
Custom Metal Designs is part of the DCC Automation Group, a New York-based automation company. The two fit together along the bottle line. CMD builds and services the equipment that handles empty bottles, from the blow molder through conveying and packaging to the filler, and DCC handles conveying on the filled side, through to finished, palletized product. For a customer, that means one group can engineer, build, and support the entire line, empty to filled. CMD keeps its own brand and its shop in Central Florida; the group relationship extends what we can cover, it doesn't replace who we are.

Shared ground
What the two companies share
CMD and DCC are both engineering-led manufacturers that build and support what they sell, rather than resell someone else's equipment.
- We build and support what we sell, not resell it
- One group covering the whole bottle lifecycle, empty to filled
- A 1972 company with the momentum of a growing group
