Creating the incredible
For over 25 years, 10 Tons have created outstanding zoological, botanical and paleontological models for museums worldwide.
From microorganisms to whale models, from deep sea creatures to flying reptiles and dinosaurs. We specialize in replicating nature into the tiniest details, transparent surfaces and textures.
We have developed groundbreaking materials and techniques to mimic nature and make models that look like living creatures rather than models.
After 25 years of busyness, we can advise our customers on the choice of materials, aesthetics, fire properties and engineer calculations.
" If you want to have a brilliant model for exhibition, outreach or teaching 10 Tons is your first choice. With the placoderm model made by 10 Tons the press release for our Nature paper on the evolution of teeth in the first jawed vertebrates was a huge success."
— Dr. Martin Rücklin, Naturalis Biodiversity Center, Leiden - Netherlands
Finish is our claim to fame
”10 Tons’ work is mind-blowing...gorgeous...unbelievable. After forty years in the makeup effects biz, i still don’t know how they do what they do. It defies all logic, but most important - their work inspires me, and everyone that’s lucky enough to see it.”
Steve Johnson, Hollywood Special Effects Maestro
