Xometry alternatives for custom parts in Europe
Manufacturing marketplaces such as Xometry let you order custom parts without finding a supplier yourself. HexoParts works on the same idea, with a production network in Poland and a few rules of its own. This page explains what we do, so you can compare it with any platform you are considering.

What to compare when choosing a platform
- Who you have the contract with and who handles a claim when a part is out of tolerance.
- When the shop gets paid: before shipping or after you accept the parts.
- Whether every order is measured before shipping and you get the report.
- Who sees your file and your company name.
- Whether the price shown is final, including shipping, or changes after review.
How HexoParts works
Simple parts get a fixed price straight from the file, complex parts are quoted by 3-5 vetted partners in a closed tender. You pay HexoParts, and the partner is paid only after you accept the parts. Every order is checked before shipping: the partner measures critical dimensions, and we review the report and photos. Files go to partners under a confidentiality agreement, without your company name.
When HexoParts is a good fit
- You order from the EU and want delivery from within the EU, without customs.
- You need single parts, prototypes or short runs, including series orders with a delivery schedule.
- You want one contract and one invoice for CNC, sheet metal and 3D printed parts.
- You are a private person: we sell to consumers in the whole EU with gross prices.
Ordering from the EU
Customers from anywhere in the EU order online: upload the file, get an instant price or one from the tender, pay in EUR. Businesses with a valid EU VAT number get an invoice without Polish VAT, private persons see gross prices.
