Plastic Molding Manufacturing

What Plastic Molding Manufacturing does

Plastic Molding Manufacturing is a privately held, vertically integrated custom plastic injection molder founded in 1968 as Danis Manufacturing Company (DAMCO Inc.) and still founder-owned under CEO George E. Danis. The company operates four US manufacturing plants — Hudson, Massachusetts (headquarters); Berlin, Connecticut; Lancaster, Pennsylvania; and South Bend, Indiana — staffed by 251-500 employees and equipped with more than 100 injection presses ranging from 30 to 600 tons. Service offerings span tooling design and build, two-shot molding (claimed as the largest such base in New England), assembly, and finishing, supported by a 5,000 sq ft ISO Class 8 cleanroom and Lights Out Manufacturing automation.

The customer base spans six end-markets — Medical, Industrial, Defense, Transportation, Connectors, and Consumer — with quality system credentials (ISO 9001:2015, ISO 13485:2016) and ITAR registration qualifying the company for medical device and defense work. Revenue is generated through B2B custom contract manufacturing, with customers typically owning the tooling and contracting the company for production runs. The company has also built a small proprietary product offering through the Aucilla Bearings brand, inherited via the 2016 Aucilla acquisition, which provides a catalog SKU revenue stream alongside custom work.

Growth to date has been substantially inorganic: six acquisitions between 2010 and 2019 (Res-Tech, Tech Atlantic, Northeast Mold, True Precision Plastics, Aucilla, Phillips-Moldex) built the multi-plant, multi-capability footprint. Recent activity — a January 2026 300-ton press addition in South Bend, a July 2025 brand refresh, and the July 2025 hire of John Maguire as Technical Sales Engineer — points to continued capital and commercial investment rather than retreat. Financials are not publicly disclosed.
