Practical Innovation. Proven Execution.

Clear Skies is a product development company and incubator specializing in patent-protected plastic solutions for the construction, industrial, and consumer markets. We don’t just design concepts; we build manufacturable products with a clear path to revenue. We look for the cleverly simple- the everyday friction points in trades and industry that can be solved with a smarter plastic design. 

Our mission is to identify these opportunities, protect them with robust utility patents, and bring them to market through a capital-light model that prioritizes speed, scalability, and high-margin returns. 

A Disciplined Approach to IP 

We operate at the intersection of engineering, intellectual property, and commerce. Our model is built on three non-negotiable pillars: 
Utility-Driven Design: We only pursue products that offer a measurable functional advantage (time, cost, or material savings). 

Manufacturability: Every design is optimized for high-volume injection molding from the first sketch, ensuring low unit costs and high quality. 

Diversified Commercialization:  We de-risk our portfolio by balancing direct product sales through national distributors with global licensing agreements for high-volume packaging formats. 

Decades of Experience in Plastics & IP

Clear Skies is led by a team with deep roots in manufacturing, finance, and construction. Founder Daniel McKenzie brings over 30 years of entrepreneurial experience and more than 30 developed patents to the incubator, ensuring every product is built on a foundation of technical and commercial reality.
