Primex Plastics is celebrating our 50th Anniversary in 2015, and our eNews will take a look back at some of the important moments for both Primex and the plastics industry over that time.

Primex Goes Global

After three decades of growth, Primex Plastics became a leading manufacturer of thermoplastic sheet in the United States plastics industry. Thus the decision was reached to expand into the global market. In 1998, Primex Plastics Limited was formed as a subsidiary of Primex Plastics Corporation to meet this growing need. With a facility based in Newton Aycliffe, Co. Durham, England, Primex has excelled in the European market as a premier manufacturer of quality, custom extruded PE and PP sheet and roll stock. 

Primex Plastics Limited has allied itself 

with the world's leading resin producers to begin the extrusion process with prime quality virgin resins. They offer a product line of extruded sheet and roll stock in both PE and PP in gauges of 0.5mm to 12 mm and in widths up to 2400 mm.

The UK facility has incorporated the ideals and standards that have resulted in successful growth for the US facilities while developing its own individual identity. This allows for implementation of programs that are best suited to its unique operations, community, and customer base.
