About Us

Our Story

SHEPP Industrial Design is a Toronto-based product design, engineering and manufacturing consultancy led by Director Adam Shepperdley. We provide innovative companies research, design, development and manufacturing expertise to establish, maintain and evolve their product lines.

We specialize in high-tech, med-tech, safety, consumer and electronic devices, with a focus on the development of products that create a positive impact and make the world a better place.

With a proven track record of successful product launches, we provide responsive, flexible and tailored collaboration solutions to enable our clients to efficiently bring quality products to life.

Beyond technically challenging designs, clients enlist SHEPPiD for strategies to develop entire product line architecture. Product families, common platforms and modular designs help our clients stay competitive by reducing costs and advancing consistency along the entire value chain of a company.

Our design philosophy is simple: form follows function. Good design makes a product easy to use. That’s why human-centered experience, user workflow and ergonomics are the baseline of all SHEPPiD design, product development and engineering services.

Our team is dedicated to exceptional client service, ensuring we fully understand and incorporate your business goals into every stage of the design process.

Client Testimonials

“While we initially contracted SHEPPiD for industrial design, they became an integral part of our development program as we brought to market the world's first saliva-based Point of Care PCR system from concept to commercialized product in less than two years. We found the SHEPPiD team to be creative, innovative and highly customer focused and worked with us seamlessly as though they were part of our organization. This is a talented team that works at the cutting edge of industrial design and delivered stellar results on spec, on time and on cost.”

“Working with SHEPP Industrial Design has been a pleasure from both a business and personal aspect. SHEPPiD’s ability to design top products and see it through from the development stage to production like it was their own product is seconded to none. SHEPPiD delivers high quality work which is why we at Fox 40 chose to work closely with them. SHEPPiD has developed multiple products for Fox 40 with several more in the development stages currently. Adam and his team routinely go above and beyond to deliver the best product possible. We recommend SHEPPiD to anyone looking for top quality designers and we are looking forward to working with them moving forward.”
