Polymer Corporation Opens New Injection Molding Facility

ROCKLAND, Mass.—Polymer Corporation, a plastics manufacturing company specializing in liquid resin cast parts and highly engineered, injection-molded and machined parts and assemblies in low-to-medium volumes, recently announced the opening of its new facility in Palmer, Massachusetts. The new 92,000-square-foot facility becomes Polymer's primary base for its injection molding and decorating services business. Polymer's liquid resin casting business and plastics machining businesses are based out of the company's headquarters in Rockland, Massachusetts.

"Polymer is rapidly growing and committed to manufacturing in the United States," said Jim Ryan, the company's chief operating officer. "Our new Palmer plant provides needed additional capacity, supports our commitment to innovation through the use of state-of-the-art technology, and allows us to run highly efficient operations. Further, Palmer is convenient to our customers and our workforce."

To support the injection molding needs of its diverse customer base, Polymer invested heavily in new equipment, including five large-capacity 500-to-800-ton injection molding machines. "We'll continue to invest in new equipment to support anticipated growth," said Mr. Ryan.

The new plant offers significant capacity, housing 26 plastic injection molding machines—ranging in size from 38 tons to 800 tons—and capabilities that include overmolding and insert molding. Polymer's range of value-added finishing services includes in-house camo dipping, painting, EMI/RFI shielding, hot stamping, pad printing, and sonic welding. The facility's other new features include a high-tech security system and a separate clean room.

Polymer's investment in its facilities, equipment, and employees has been recognized by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; the Massachusetts Alliance for Economic Development (MassEcon) recently awarded Polymer a 2012 Economic Impact Award for its contribution to the state and local economy.

Polymer Corporation (www.polymercorporation.com) is ISO 9001:2008 and ITAR-registered. The company also has a federal CAGE code and a Federal Firearms License (FFL).
