COAST Systems: A unique, turnkey solution for mold asset management
Managing mold assets is a challenge for manufacturers worldwide. OEMs often invest millions in molds but struggle with asset and tool life management, especially across multiple facilities or third-party partners.
COAST’s Global Mold Management program turns these challenges into opportunities. By combining powerful cloud-based Asset Management Technology with expert support, we help companies extend mold life, improve efficiency, stabilize supply chains, and reduce costs.
How do I know whether my company needs a global mold management program?
Strong asset management is critical for companies competing in today’s fast-paced environment. Leading organizations see it as essential for reducing risk, controlling costs, and staying ahead of supply and demand. Not sure if you’re there yet?
Ask yourself these five important questions:
- How many assets does your company have and what is their total value?

- What is the condition of each asset?
- What is the cost to maintain the assets?
- When should the assets be replaced?
COAST helps you answer all of these questions anytime, across all your global locations. We partner with enterprise-level companies to transform how assets are tracked and maintained, ensuring stronger business continuity.
Now it’s your turn – ask us what we can do for your organization.
