More Than 30 Years of Professional Scale Model Manufacturing
TNBuilt West is a professional scale model manufacturer with more than three decades of experience producing thousands of bespoke physical models to hundreds of clients and projects around the world.
Founded in 1990, the company combines skilled model making with digital engineering and manufacturing technology.
We are a professional scale model manufacturing company capable of transforming architectural, marine, industrial and engineering data into highly detailed physical models, using industrial digital manufacturing technology, skilled model making and controlled international delivery.
Our work spans marine, architecture, real estate, offshore oil & gas, industrial facilities, master planning and engineering parts with sectional cuts.
Every project is developed according to its intended scale, physical dimensions, technical requirements and presentation objectives.
We believe every project is unique, so we study each client's requirements closely and deliver models that amaze both the client and their audience, whether displayed at a company headquarters, an international trade show, a museum or a university.

Confidentiality for Sensitive Projects
Many scale models are produced before a project is publicly launched. Architectural developments, new vessels, industrial facilities and engineering projects may contain commercially sensitive information.
TNBuilt West treats client information, engineering designs, specifications and project documentation with strict confidentiality.
Confidentiality is integrated into the project process from the initial exchange of technical information through manufacturing and delivery.
When required we enforce controlled limited personal access to:
- Original project information by our engineering CAD/CAM team;
- Dedicated manufacturing and assembly rooms, where only the authorized staff can enter with access control.
