Celebrating 60 Incredible Years in Business
We are proud to announce that B.F. Plastics, Inc. is celebrating a milestone, our sixtieth anniversary. In 1953, my father, Robert (Bob) Fichter, the founder of B.F. Plastics, Inc., began his venture of establishing a signage and engraving business. With his wife Marilyn by his side, he transformed his hobby into a successful business.
His vision was to work directly with the customers to ensure they were always provided products with the quality they expected. By carrying out his vision, the promise continues to improve on exceeding your expectations.
With over sixty years of proudly serving our customers, you can count on B.F. Plastics, Inc. for the materials and supplies for all your engraving, signage, recognition, and identification needs.
As we celebrate this tremendous milestone, I would like to personally thank you for your business and for putting your trust in B.F. Plastics, Inc. It has been personally rewarding to work with you over the years and we look forward to serving you for many years to come.
