Quality Plastics

What Quality Plastics does

Quality Plastics & Machine, Incorporated, operating as Quality Plastics, is a privately held custom plastic products manufacturer founded in 1976 and headquartered in a single facility at 1685 Industrial Way, Sparks, Nevada. The company operates a multi-process contract manufacturing platform built around vacuum forming as its core production process, supplemented by drape forming for optically clear curved parts, CNC machining (plastic and metal), fabrication (sawing, routing, line bending, laser cutting, welding, ultrasonic fastening), laser cutting and engraving, 3D printing, custom automated machine building, and turnkey production that includes assembly, kitting, custom packaging, and shipping logistics. Its technology stack pairs this equipment base with SolidWorks for CAD, SurfCAM for CNC toolpath generation, and JobBOSS for scheduling, traceability, and quality planning. Quality is structured around an ISO 9001-based management system with a Build Quality In (BQI) methodology, Mil-Spec and RoHS compliance on request, and quality records retained for five or more years.

The company serves a broad set of B2B customers across vertically diverse industries including industrial and manufacturing, medical and healthcare, aerospace (with documented space shuttle applications), automotive and equipment automation, gaming and entertainment, law enforcement, retail security, food and agriculture, and microchips. Named end customers include Long Ride Shields (motorcycle accessories) and Turbo Klone (cloning units for medical equipment), both served under turnkey arrangements. Go-to-market is direct-sales led with no formalized digital marketing, social media presence, or channel partners; customers reach the company via a website contact form or phone, and the company responds with a custom quote within 1–2 business days.

The revenue model is project-based custom manufacturing priced via quotes determined by complexity, materials, tooling, volume, and finishing requirements. Value-added services include design-for-manufacturing reviews, IP/NDA management, and turnkey assembly that allow customers to outsource the full product lifecycle from concept to shelf-ready goods. Quality Plastics ships nationwide from its single Nevada plant, effectively serving regional customers across Nevada, California, Oregon, and Washington, and U.S.-wide customers via freight logistics, with no public revenue, headcount, or ownership disclosures available.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Vacuum Forming Thermoforming production process in which rigid thermoplastic sheets are heated and drawn over a tool using vacuum pressure to create accurate, repeatable parts. Suitable for low to medium production runs with tooling costs 10-50 times less than injection molding.
• Drape Forming Manufacturing process for optically clear curved parts using pre-cut heated flat sheet placed over a form with soft facing to protect clarity. Used for windows, elevator panels, observatory domes, and other applications requiring outstanding optical clarity without surface marks.
• CNC Machining Precision plastic and metal parts machining using CNC machining centers, dual spindle CNC lathe with live tooling, standard mills, and lathes. Includes cutting, milling, and trimming for tight features, holes, and finished edges in both prototype and production quantities.
• Fabrication Comprehensive fabrication service including sawing, table routing, CNC routing (5-axis and 3-axis), line bending, laser cutting, steel-rule die cutting, stress relieving, and assembly operations including riveting, fasteners, threaded inserts, adhesives, welding, and ultrasonic fastening.
• Laser Cutting Non-contact laser cutting and engraving delivering tight, repeatable results on flat sheet and formed plastic parts. Includes hole patterns, slots, engraving for logos and traceability marking. Processes acrylic, ABS, PETG, HIPS, HDPE, polypropylene, and other engineering thermoplastics.
• 3D Printing Additive manufacturing service for rapid prototypes, bridge production, and low-volume production runs using engineering-grade polymers including ABS, PLA, nylon/PC, and PC-ABS. Multiple printing technologies available for varied surface finish, detail, and durability requirements.
• Turnkey Production Full-service manufacturing partnership managing complete product builds from part production and assembly to custom packaging, promotional inserts, labeling, and shipping logistics. Supports brand customers such as Long Ride Shields and Turbo Klone with shelf-ready delivery.
• Machine Automation Custom automated machine building service that designs and builds automated equipment to speed up production, improve reliability, and lower costs for manufacturing operations.
