Apply to Become a Supplier: Join the Trustbridge Manufacturing Network
Stop chasing dead-end leads. Trustbridge connects ISO-certified shops with verified buyers. We deliver production-ready CAD files directly to your inbox, so you can focus on manufacturing, not sales.
If you’re a supplier who takes pride in your work and wants to build lasting customer relationships — not chase anonymous RFQs — we’d love to hear from you.
Why Top Machine Shops Choose Trustbridge
- Vetted Engineering Data – Never quote a bad drawing again. Our engineers review every BOM and CAD file for manufacturability before it reaches you.
- High-Intent RFQs (No Bidding Wars) – We don't blast RFQs to 50 shops. You compete against a small, curated pool, giving you a 3x higher win rate than public job boards.
- Clear Communication – Our team stays involved to make sure expectations are aligned and questions get answered.
- Verified Corporate Buyers – Work with funded startups and enterprise OEMs. We verify creditworthiness so you get guaranteed payment on net terms.
- Long-Term Relationships – Many suppliers become go-to partners for recurring work, not just one-off jobs.
- Growth & Incentives – Preferred partners may earn access to premium projects, referral bonuses, and even phantom equity participation in Trustbridge’s long-term growth.
What We’re Looking For
We work with shops that are:
- Technically capable and process-driven
- Responsive and professional in communication
- Committed to quality and continuous improvement
- Comfortable working with startups and enterprise customers
- Willing to be transparent about capacity, lead times, and pricing
Certifications (e.g., ISO 9001, AS9100, ITAR, ISO 13485) are not required for all jobs, but are preferred for work in regulated industries.
Active Manufacturing Opportunities
We’re actively expanding our network in the following areas:
- CNC Machining: 3-Axis, 5-Axis Milling, Swiss Turning, Wire EDM.
- Sheet Metal: Laser Cutting, Press Brake Forming, Certified Welding (AWS).

- Advanced: Industrial 3D Printing (MJF/DMLS), Urethane Casting.
If your shop supports multiple processes or serves a niche market (e.g., aerospace, medical, robotics), let us know — we’d love to match you with the right projects.
