How To Choose the Right Company for Your Next Extrusion Project

The extrusion process allows custom products to be manufactured for a variety of projects. Clark Rubber & Plastic is a manufacturer that offers rubber and plastic extrusion services. Here are several things to look for when choosing a company for your extrusion project: 

Meets Product Requirements for Industries

Find a company that offers rubber and plastic extrusion products that meet industry standards. Appliances that require rubber and plastic products should withstand regular usage and high temperatures. In a military environment, rubber and plastic components are expected to meet strict regulatory compliance standards to endure extreme conditions and provide constant reliability. Rubber and plastic components also help uphold the structural integrity of solar equipment. Look for a manufacturer that prioritizes using high-quality materials during the extrusion process and creating long-lasting components. 

Clark Rubber & Plastic serves the appliance, automotive, consumer, military, and solar industries. We utilize a quality system as part of all company operations to make sure that our products meet your industry’s production and safety requirements. We use certified materials and provide uniform density and structural integrity for our high-quality products. Clark Rubber & Plastic has received a UL certification of compliance for QMFZ2.E356537 Plastics-Component.

Handles Long and Short Product Runs 

When selecting a company for extrusion products, check their manufacturing and production volume capabilities. If you are creating a prototype or a single product, see if the company offers short product runs. If your project requires a longer run, talk to the company about their facilities and rate of production. Ask about turnaround and lead times to make sure the company’s production process aligns with your project timeline. 

Our manufacturing plant can manage all project sizes and complexity levels. Clark Rubber & Plastic can provide a variety of profiles and shapes for your plastic and rubber extrusion products. With six newer extrusion lines and a 40,000-square-foot facility dedicated to plastic operations, we provide both high- and low-volume production services and offer a quick turnaround time.

Provides a Variety of Services

Find a manufacturer that provides multiple services, such as assembling, milling, and packaging. This allows you to work with a single company to fulfill your project needs, which can help reduce production time. You will not need to work with multiple suppliers to complete one project. Clark Rubber & Plastic creates our own tooling with state-of-the-art equipment. Our die-cutting services allow us to meet precise specifications for different products.
