olymer Industries has more than 45 years of experience in performance plastics manufacturing. They are proud the quality standards that formed the foundation of the company are still in place today. As the business expanded to meet the request of its customers, their product portfolio expanded also.

Polymer Industries has one of the largest product offerings from a single manufacturer including: Densetec® high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), high molecular weight polyethylene (HMW), low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and Polyslick® ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW-PE). Their Mechanical Division produces a variety of Mechetec® high performance materials, acetals and extruded nylon.

Capabilities include polyolefin sheet extrusion, ram extrusion, mechanical sheet and rod extrusion, compression molding and fabrication. The company strives to continuously introduce innovative products to meet the needs of customers while staying competitive in an ever-changing marketplace.

Manufacturing facilities are located in Alabama and Washington with distribution centers in Utah and Illinois which allows easier distribution for customers located in the United States and throughout the world. The company also has a truck liner division located in Wisconsin.

In 2022, Polymer Industries again made the decision to expand their capabilities to better meet the needs of their customers with the addition of their fourth EX-L Press for compression molding. This EX-L press will produce two 8′ x 20′ sheets at once and will provide increased production capacity and shorter lead times for customers. Expansion is a main focus for 2023 as a new 5′ x 10′ press will be installed in the first quarter. The new 5′ x 10′ press will expand the variety of size options available to our customers.

Meeting the needs of their customers has always been a priority for Polymer Industries and has driven product expansion and company growth over the years.

Sustainability is another important core value for Polymer Industries. It is something the company has practiced for more than 45 years. They began recycling internally and later, when their products reached end of life, those products were brought back from customers. Polymer Industries strives to provide a circular economy to do what is right for the environment.

“Our goal is to recycle 100 percent of the products we manufacture at the end of life and to do our part for the environment,” said Polymer Industries Vice-President of Sales and Marketing Rohit Saigal. “We strive to proactively address the needs of our customers and the future of performance plastics. We invite our customers to visit our manufacturing facility and see how our products are made to the highest quality standards. Our focus is to consistently provide the quality products our customers have come to expect over the past 45 years. It is imperative that our products and our policies are in line with our mission to protect the future of plastics for generations to come.”
