Custom keycap
manufacturer for
global brands.
A factory you can feel before you order. OSHID moulds, prints and finishes double-shot & dye-sub PBT/ABS keycaps with in-house tooling and AQL QC — up to 36 million sets a year from Dongguan, China.
Made together.
Seen everywhere.
From first samples to packed show floors—real conversations, real builders and the people who put our keycaps to work.
A selection of profiles we tool.
Profile is the sculpt and height of a cap across each row (R4→R1). Here is a selection from our mould library — heights in millimetres — and we cut custom sculpts in-house.
Keycap profiles we tool and mould in-house include Cherry, OEM, SA, XDA, DSA, MDA, CSA, OMA, OSA, ASA and low-profile keycaps — available in PBT and ABS, with double-shot, dye-sublimation, UV-printed and laser-engraved legends for custom OEM / ODM keycap sets. Not sure which profile? Compare them in our keycap profiles guide, or browse all buying guides.
Every step under one roof. Press play.
No outsourcing of the steps that matter — tooling, molding, printing and inspection are ours. Pick a process to watch it run on our floor, or read how double-shot and dye-sublimation compare.

Custom keycap manufacturing, answered.
The questions buyers ask us most about MOQ, lead time, artwork and materials for custom OEM / ODM keycaps.
What is the MOQ for custom keycaps?
Minimum order quantity depends on the printing process. Double-shot keycaps have an MOQ of 2,000 sets, because each colorway needs dedicated mould time; dye-sublimation, silk-screen (pad) printing and laser-engraved keycap sets start at 500 sets. Using an existing profile avoids new tooling — send your spec for an exact figure.
How long is the sampling lead time?
Sampling takes about 3–5 days for dye-sublimation, silk-screen and laser-engraved keycaps, and around 15 days for double-shot keycaps that require tooling. Mass production typically runs 15–20 working days for standard orders, confirmed with your quotation based on quantity and process.
What artwork file formats do you accept?
We accept PDF, AI, STP / STEP, PNG and JPG / JPEG files. Vector artwork (AI, PDF) with outlined fonts and Pantone (PMS) color references gives the most accurate color match and legend sharpness; STEP (STP) files help when we tool a new custom profile. Our engineers review every file for feasibility before quoting.
What materials and printing processes do you offer?
We mould keycaps in PBT, ABS and PC, with legends produced by double-shot injection, dye-sublimation, reverse dye-sub, UV printing or laser engraving. Double-shot and dye-sub give the most durable, long-lasting legends. Tooling and mould development are done in-house.
Which keycap profiles and layouts can you produce?
Profiles include Cherry, OEM, SA, XDA, DSA, MDA, CSA, OMA, OSA, ASA and low-profile keycaps, plus custom sculpts cut in-house. We support ANSI, ISO and JIS layouts and full-size, TKL, 75%, 65% and 60% kits, including the extra novelty and modifier caps a complete kit needs.
Do you offer OEM and ODM production for brands?
Yes. As a keycap factory we manufacture OEM/ODM custom keycaps for keyboard brands, peripheral retailers, distributors and group-buy organizers worldwide, from tooling and samples to mass production, AQL quality inspection and packaging. Client names under NDA are kept confidential.
