Chris Abboud

Founder & CEO

Chris Abboud, CEO of RepRipe was born with a passion for engineering, and that love has only nurtured throughout his career. During his high school days, he came up with an idea but was unsure of its market potential and had no idea where to start. He contacted a local engineer and told him about his plan. The engineer said he could design the idea and quickly responded with a quote. Though shocked by the number, he went through with it anyway. The engineer came back with a design and did not contribute or add anything to the idea. He was very reluctant to make any significant changes and not as involved with the project as he had hoped.

This experience was a force in Chris’s drive to product manufacturing success.Although he is a mechanical engineering graduate from the University of San Diego, he had an engineering background that far predates his collegiate education. Drawing on his experience at the machine shop, Chris already knew the ins and outs of product manufacturing and the importance of easy-to-manufacture part design at an early age.Since graduating from USD, RepRipe’s CEO has worked as a product design engineer and manufacturing engineer, providing him the needed experience in injection molding, CNC machining, and Additive manufacturing. In addition to his engineering experience, Chris has spent several years in Asia building close and personal relationships with various manufacturers and industry professionals. As CEO of an innovative prototyping firm, Chris aims to put skilled engineers to work all while helping inventors around the world achieve their dreams of bringing their brilliant ideas to life and their products to market. Dedicated to offering the best possible experience, we pride ourselves on communication, friendliness, and honesty which has set the perfect foundation for an ideal design family, workplace, and business. Our engineers and designers are not only exceptionally skilled but also readily available to consult our clients, holding your hands through each decision made during the product design process. At RepRipe, we work with you to turn your vision into reality.

how we work

RepRipe adopts a service delivery system that is built on maximum honesty, transparency, and professionalism, making sure we help our clients bring their ideas and vision to life. To achieve this, we use a 3-step process which includes:

Step 1: Initial Consultation- Our service delivery starts right from when you walk through our door with an idea or solution to a problem wondering how best to put it to work.

Step 2: Follow up Appointment- Once we listen to your idea, we will follow up with some more questions and then schedule a follow-up appointment where we try to understand your project scope better, discussing how best to achieve the needed result.

Step 3: We then move on to intensive market research to see what is already out on the market. At this stage, two situations follow:

THE PRODUCT EXISTS IN MARKET: We notify you of the current competition, ensuring proper transparency all through. We will not begin developing a product until we are both confident.
THE PRODUCT DOES NOT EXIST: If the product does not exist, then we will start with the product development phase. We first start with a proof of concept design and prototype that is relatively cheap to prove the product’s vital functions. We then move on to product appearance, providing the customer the option to pick a design that is appealing to the targeted customer. Once we agree on a model, we start getting ready for production.

While at it, we advise our client to obtain a patent for their product. We will do a basic patent search to make sure their idea isn’t owned by someone else and refer them to a trusted patent attorney.
