What Plastic Extrusion Technologies does

Plastic Extrusion Technologies (P.E.T.) is a privately held, custom plastic extrusion manufacturer founded in 1997 and headquartered in a 45,000-square-foot facility in Middlefield, Ohio, with an additional 10,000 square feet of warehousing. The company produces custom plastic profiles and tubing using single-screw and twin-screw extruders, supporting cross-sections from 1/32 inch to 13 inches, lengths up to 24 feet, and widths up to 18 inches or wider, across at least 17 resin types and more than 300 tubing grades. Core capabilities include in-house die design (resolving approximately 98% of tooling issues without a second tool), proprietary tubing extrusion methods, and bundled secondary finishing operations (notching, drilling, punching, forming, gluing, taping, and heat welding), supported by an AQL-styled quality control process with shadowgraph and go/no-go gauge inspection.

The company sells exclusively through a direct B2B model via a "Request a Quote" website workflow, with no resellers or distributors and no minimum order quantity, serving customers that range from individual inventors needing prototype runs to Fortune 500 manufacturers across at least seven verticals: commercial construction, HVAC, refrigeration, cable and wire management, point-of-purchase displays, safety applications, and brush manufacturing. The team claims 100+ years of combined plastics extrusion experience and processes more than 7 million pounds of plastic material annually, completing an estimated 100-120 new projects per year with customers throughout the United States. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with "aggressive pricing" and bundled finishing cited as competitive advantages, and long-tenured customer relationships (some spanning decades) anchor recurring revenue.
