From Standard Selection to Precision Customization｜How UJEN Delivered PANTONE-Colored Knob Screws for Global OEM Branding

This case demonstrates how UJEN supported a leading Taiwanese fastening tool manufacturer in fulfilling a global OEM client's request for brand-specific PANTONE-colored knob screws. Beginning with extensive standard product options and expert selection guidance, UJEN advanced toward full custom color matching, rigorous sample verification, and stable mass production—ultimately strengthening product identity, enhancing OEM value, and reinforcing long-term international partnerships.

Client Background｜A Half-Century Taiwanese Leader in Fastening and Stapling Tools

Founded in 1966 and headquartered in central Taiwan, the client is a globally recognized manufacturer of manual fastening tools, staple guns, office staplers, and specialty fastening equipment. Built on the principles of integrity, diligence, and craftsmanship, the company has developed a comprehensive product line and a highly experienced engineering team. Its production facilities in Taiwan and China have adopted the Toyota Production System (TPS) for over a decade, ensuring high quality, short lead times, and exceptional delivery performance.

In addition to operating its own brand, the company is also a long-standing OEM/ODM partner for many internationally renowned names in the global tool industry.

OEM Project Challenge｜Finding the Ideal Knob Screw for an International Client

During an OEM development project for a major overseas customer, the Taiwan tool manufacturer faced a critical component selection challenge—identifying a knob screw that met strict functional durability requirements while presenting a visual and tactile quality matching the client’s brand expectations. They needed a hardware partner capable of offering diverse options and high-level technical consultation.

Initial Engagement｜How UJEN Became the Ideal Partner for Selection and Technical Support

Upon contacting UJEN Development, the client immediately recognized a supplier who could offer more than catalog items:

• A wide library of standard knob screws with different designs, sizes, and materials, providing far more selection depth than expected.
• Professional engineering consultation, including application analysis, market requirements, structural considerations, and cost-performance evaluation.

Through UJEN’s guidance, the manufacturer quickly identified the best-fitting knob screw for the OEM project—meeting both functional specifications and the aesthetic expectations of the overseas customer. This successful beginning established a long-term, collaborative relationship.

Brand Color Customization｜Overseas Client Requests PANTONE-Matched Knob Screws

After the OEM product gained approval, the overseas customer introduced a new requirement: the knob screws needed to match its precise brand color using a defined PANTONE reference. This request aimed to enhance brand consistency, differentiation, and market visibility.

The Taiwanese tool manufacturer returned to UJEN to handle this color-critical customization challenge.
