Hoffer Plastics

Hoffer Plastics is a family-owned custom injection molding manufacturer founded in 1953 and headquartered in South Elgin, Illinois. Despite being a respected industry leader, their digital presence no longer reflected the scale and sophistication of their operations.

Redesign a complex manufacturing website to better serve engineers, procurement teams, brand owners, and prospective employees — while modernizing the brand experience and improving navigation across a deep content structure.

My Role

This project was a collaboration between Zealth Digital Marketing (my team) and Allegro Design. I led all Figma design work and helped establish the page template structure and information architecture. Allegro organized the content from the existing site, updated copy, and managed client communications.

Discovery & IA

I worked alongside Allegro to define page templates, map user journeys, and organize a large content set into a navigable structure covering capabilities, industries, proprietary products, sustainability, and company history.

Visual Design

I designed all pages in Figma, establishing a clean, modern visual system that balances Hoffer’s precision manufacturing identity with their approachable, family-owned culture.

Design work included:

Visual direction and layout system

Page templates for capabilities, industries, products, and editorial content

Mobile and desktop responsive layouts

Design handoff for WordPress/ACF development
