CMF R&D to MASS PRODUCTION
MJO goes beyond simple trend analysis.
By integrating key CMF strategy elements—such as components, technology, cost, and standardization—we provide end-to-end consulting from the concept stage all the way to successful mass production.
Business Area
CMF Design
01
CMF Trend Analysis
We research global material and finish trends and propose application strategies suited to your brand. Seasonal color directions and competitor material movements are organized into a CMF direction ready to apply to your next product.
02
Mass-Production-Based CMF Proposals
We recommend materials and finishes that are feasible in real production. Constraints and costs for each process — injection molding, painting, deposition, anodizing — are reviewed together to finalize specifications that keep the design intent intact.
03
Sample Library Development
We produce up-to-date material and finish sample books and support in-house library development. From sample sourcing to classification systems, display and web data, the whole team can review CMF against one standard.
04
Brand-Specific CMF Strategy
We plan colors, materials and finishes that match each brand’s identity. CMF guidelines and standard specifications across the product range keep the brand tone consistent as new products are added.
