The Research & Development Process
Behind every product at Coastal Group is a rigorous research and development process.
For the KM126, KM163, and FP122, the engineering team focused on three key areas: durability, ergonomic design, and customer feedback.
“Each of these products underwent extensive testing to ensure they perform in high-traffic environments,” explained Engineering Manager Phil Walklett. “We need to ensure they resist corrosion in harsh weather conditions, and remain easy to use over time. We worked closely with customers to perfect the shapes and finishes, ensuring that they not only look great but also function seamlessly.”
