Material Compounding
Plastic Compounding | Reinforced Polyolefins | Thermoplastic Elastomers
(TPO and TPV) | Pre-coloured Concentrates
ABC has played a major role in the advancement of thermoplastic and custom compounds for specialized automotive products. Through our collaboration with Salflex Polymers, all of our products are an effective and competitive alternative to metals and engineered plastics. Our employees have extensive experience with high performance engineered resins, and work closely with resin manufactures to test and evaluate new materials. ABC Technologies’ commitment to sustainable development includes the research and engineering of sustainable products.
Machine and Tool Building Group
Mold Making | Machine Building | Secondary Assembly Systems | Custom Automation Equipment
One of ABC Technologies’ key distinctions is the ability to design our own products by working in tandem with the Supreme Tooling Group (STG). STG designs the tooling, builds machines and creates all related finishing and secondary assembly systems to meet the product’s exact requirements. These capabilities give our client’s the advantage of rapid prototyping and unique product manufacturing with lower costs.
Quality Assurance
Quality assurance is maintained through our IATF 16949 certification in combination with proactive quality management principles.
Our goal to achieve and enhance customers’ satisfaction is reflected in our zero-defect policy and commitment to the continuous improvement of products and customer service.
