What Currier Plastics does

Currier Plastics, Inc. is a U.S. contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) that produces custom precision plastic components for healthcare, pharmaceutical, medical device, drug delivery, diagnostics, and life sciences customers, with healthcare/life sciences representing approximately 60% of revenue. Founded in 1982 in Auburn, New York and headquartered at 101 Columbus Street, the company operates custom injection molding (44- to 500-ton clamping pressure) and blow molding processes including extrusion (EBM), injection stretch (ISBM), and injection blow molding (IBM), performed in ISO Class 7 and Class 8 cleanrooms under an ISO 13485:2016 certified quality management system with FDA 21 CFR Part 820 registration. Service scope spans design engineering and Design for Manufacturing (SolidWorks 3D CAD, Finite Element Analysis, 3D scanning), tooling, prototype-to-commercial production, sub-assembly and kitting, and device/component packaging, all delivered from a vertically integrated U.S. footprint.

The company's go-to-market is a sales-led enterprise field motion targeting blue-chip medical device, pharmaceutical, and diagnostics customers through dedicated direct sales, industry trade shows (MD&M West, PHARMAPACK Europe, ADLM), and inbound website inquiries. Pricing is quote-based, determined by part complexity, volume, material selection, cleanroom class, and value-added services such as assembly, packaging, and serialization, structured around multi-year contracts typical of regulated medical supply. Currier has historically marketed itself as one of the few U.S. facilities capable of producing all components under one roof.

Ownership and scale have shifted materially in the past year: private equity firm Sheridan Capital Partners acquired Currier in September 2025, installed Andrew McLean as CEO, and in January 2026 completed the simultaneous acquisitions of Springboard Manufacturing (Rancho Cordova, CA; 200+ employees; 140,000 sq ft; Class 8 cleanroom) and MOS Plastics (San Jose, CA; 120+ employees; 55,000 sq ft; Class 7 and Class 8 cleanroom), bringing combined headcount above 320 employees and total manufacturing footprint to more than 195,000 sq ft across three U.S. sites. Customer logos are not publicly disclosed, and revenue is not reported, though scale signals and case-study outcomes (zero-leak reagent cartridge programs, 82% warpage reduction, 22% cycle-time improvement, multi-million-unit capacity unlocks) indicate material commercial activity in regulated medical and diagnostics applications.
