What omega plastics does

Omega Plastics is a privately held custom plastic extrusion manufacturer founded in 1978 and headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee, with a second production facility in Carrollton, Texas. The company operates 44 extrusion lines in aggregate (28 at the Knoxville plant and 16 at the Texas plant) and is vertically integrated through an in-house die and tooling shop equipped with CAD design, Wire EDM, and CNC machining running 24/7. Its core offering centers on thermoplastic profile extrusion using single, dual, and tri-extrusion processes, supported by cellular/foamed extrusion (Celuka and Free Foam), post-formed extrusion, and embedded extrusion (inserts of wire, metal, or other materials). The customer base spans construction and building, medical devices, automotive and transportation, plumbing and electrical, marine, refrigeration, office furniture, and irrigation, with materials processed including PVC, polyethylene (HDPE/LDPE), polypropylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate, ABS, EVA, TPE, acrylic, and nylon, plus custom formulations meeting UL and NSF certifications.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time sales of custom-manufactured extruded profiles, supplemented by profile design and engineering services. Pricing is quote-based with minimum order quantities that vary by profile complexity, material, and tooling; lead times are 10–12 weeks for full-service concept-to-completion projects and 4–6 weeks for re-orders. Commercial agreements are typically structured as multi-year contracts, with average deal size and per-customer revenue not publicly disclosed. The company sells through a direct sales motion — a quote-request workflow on its website plus dedicated sales consultants at both the Knoxville and Dallas/Carrollton locations — and reaches customers domestically across the U.S. and internationally in South America, Europe, and Asia. Marketing combines educational content on extrusion technology, active social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and membership in the International Association of Plastics Distribution (IAPD); U.S.-based raw material sourcing and production are positioned as a supply-chain differentiator.

Leadership is held by a long-tenured team: CEO Alejandro Alban (30+ years in plastic products production and construction), VP of Sales and Marketing Don Nase (29+ years of executive experience), Texas Die Design lead Kevin Maxson (36 years in custom profile extrusion), Lead Engineer Joe Neal (27 years designing and tuning extrusion tooling), and Tennessee Customer Service lead Alice Anderton (31 years of customer service). The company is independently owned, with no disclosed external investors, private equity sponsors, parent company, or M&A history in the source material.

Products and services

• Single Extrusion Profiles designed using a single thermoplastic material for cost-efficient production of simple profiles across construction, automotive, medical, and industrial applications.
• Dual Extrusion (Co-Extrusion) Profiles combining two different materials into a single profile, enabling multiple performance characteristics such as a rigid core with flexible outer layer.
• Tri Extrusion Profiles combining three materials into a single extruded profile for advanced performance and specialized applications.
• Cellular or Foamed Extrusion (Celuka & Free Foam) Profiles produced using a foaming agent to lower density, reducing material costs while maintaining structural integrity.
• Post Formed Extrusion Profiles extruded flat then post formed through calibration tooling for complex shapes and configurations.
• Embedded Extrusion Embedding wire, metal, or other materials within a profile during extrusion to enhance physical properties for specialized applications.
• Custom Thermoplastic Materials Wide range of thermoplastic materials including PVC, polyethylene (HDPE/LDPE), polypropylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate, ABS, EVA, TPE, acrylic (PMMA), and nylon (PA), plus custom formulations for specific performance requirements including UL and NSF certifications.
