What Plan Tech does

Plan Tech, Inc. is a privately held, founder-owned cast urethane manufacturer founded in 1986 and headquartered in a single integrated facility in Loudon, New Hampshire. The company produces custom molded polyurethane parts using open cast, rotational, compression, and liquid injection molding, with supporting in-house CNC machining, waterjet cutting, precision grinding, mold manufacture, and a proprietary urethane-to-metal bonding process. Its product catalog spans over 100 specialized part types — bearings, wheels, rollers (drive, idler, precision, tapered, cradle, escalator, hourglass, finger, and many more), bushings (suspension, control arm, spherical, motor mount, trunnion), gears, sprockets, seals, gaskets, pads, bumpers, liners, sheets, rods, bars, blocks, couplings, and wiper/scraper blades — along with refurbishment services such as roller recovering and finish grinding.

Plan Tech operates a quote-based, project-priced B2B manufacturing model, billing customers for one-off custom parts through to 100,000+ unit production runs. It sells primarily through direct enterprise sales (phone, email, and website Request-a-Quote) targeting Fortune 500 industrial manufacturers, automotive OEMs and aftermarket, material handling/aggregate, food processing (FDA-compliant materials), defense/military (DLA-registered, Cage Code 0CLU6), and robotics/automation customers. Pricing varies with material selection (ether vs. ester based), durometer (20A to 75D), tolerances, quantity, and color, and the company promotes rapid prototyping lead times of 10-15 business days from print to part. All manufacturing is performed in the USA at the Loudon facility. Strategic activity has consisted of two tuck-in acquisitions — Industrial Wheels, Inc. assets in October 2018 and Comstock Industries urethane assets in October 2019 — that extended product lines and customer reach. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed external equity, debt, or institutional investors.

Broad incumbents

• Covestro: Covestro is a major global polyurethane raw materials and specialty systems supplier. While primarily a chemicals supplier rather than a finished parts manufacturer, it shapes the competitive landscape for custom urethane fabricators and supplies prepolymers to the industry.
• ITW (Illinois Tool Works): ITW is a diversified industrial manufacturer with multiple polyurethane and engineered polymer products in its portfolio. Operates at much larger scale across many industrial segments, but overlaps in custom-molded industrial components and Fortune 500 customer relationships.
• Hexpol Compounding: Hexpol is a global polymer compounding group with significant custom polyurethane elastomer operations alongside broader rubber compounding. Larger scale and broader portfolio make it a broad incumbent serving similar industrial customers with custom urethane solutions.

Emerging players

• Urethane Associates: Urethane Associates is a smaller custom urethane manufacturer focused on molded polyurethane parts for specialized industrial applications. Comparable product offerings but smaller scale, positioning it as a niche/emerging competitor in overlapping segments.
