Plastic Blower

What Plastic Blower does

Plastic Blower, operating under the legal name TEXEL-SEIKOW U.S.A., Inc. (DBA: plasticblower.com), is the North American distribution and sales subsidiary of Japanese industrial manufacturer TEXEL-SEIKOW (Seikow Chemical Engineering & Machinery), headquartered in Hyogo, Japan. The Houston, Texas-based entity was established in 2014 to serve US industrial customers requiring corrosion-resistant air movement equipment, drawing on the parent's 60+ years of experience in corrosion-resistant blowers, pumps, and wet gas scrubbers.

The company's core product is a line of fiber-reinforced polypropylene (FRP) blowers sold under the CES series, encompassing direct drive models (CES-101D, CES-151D, CES-201D covering 10–4000 CFM) and belt-driven models (CES-101, CES-151, CES-201 covering 300–5000 CFM), supplemented by PVC Socket Flange accessories. Key technical differentiators include a patented high-efficiency impeller design, a twist-off removable inlet casing for simplified maintenance (contrasted with conventional split casings), and a center-positioned discharge for easier duct installation. Products carry a two-year warranty and free shipping is offered on orders over $1,000.

Plastic Blower operates a direct-to-consumer e-commerce model via plasticblower.com, selling primarily to industrial facilities handling corrosive gases, chemical processing, and environmental remediation applications. Revenue is generated through one-time product sales at unit prices ranging from approximately $1,500 to $4,000 per blower, with no subscription, service, or recurring-revenue component. The customer base is described as industrial corrosive applications users, though no named accounts or logos are publicly disclosed.
