What Intek Plastics does

Intek Plastics, LLC is a custom plastic parts manufacturer founded in 1961 and headquartered in Hastings, Minnesota, operating four facilities across Minnesota and Wisconsin with more than 200 associates and 30+ production lines running on a 24/5 schedule. The company produces custom plastic extrusion profiles (including multi-material co-, tri- and quad-extrusions), plastic injection molding (35 to 1,000 tons), additive manufacturing (SLA, FDM, SLS) and cast urethane parts, supported by in-house tooling, design-for-manufacturing engineering and a full suite of secondary operations such as assembly, printing, marking, welding and inventory management.

Intek sells exclusively to medium and large B2B OEMs under a quote-based pricing model, with disclosed production volumes ranging from 5,000 to 15,000,000 feet for extrusion orders. The company serves ten primary verticals, including fenestration, data centers, aerospace and defense, medical devices and dental, off-highway equipment, consumer products, electronics, HVAC/R, industrial OEMs and power & energy, with certifications spanning ISO 9001:2015, AS 9100D, UL, FDA medical device registration and ITAR compliance that gate entry into regulated end markets.

Operationally, the company reports nearly 100% on-time delivery, <1,000 DPPM, customer quality ratings above 99%, and a waste rate of 0.0000442 with less than 1.5% of scrap going to landfill. Under CEO Kevin Hogan (appointed December 2023), Intek has executed two acquisitions (Five Star Plastics in December 2025 and an unnamed Wisconsin extruder in April 2026), launched the IntekSmart sustainable bioplastic line, formed a dedicated data center vertical and unified acquired brands under the Intek Plastics name in 2026, signaling an active consolidation and growth agenda.
