Plastex Corporation Information

PLASTEX CORPORATION is a manufacturer's representative and distribution company established since 1980 with the aim of servicing the Caribbean's industry, specializing in serving the plastics segment. The company has a broad line of suppliers representing both raw materials and equipment. In conjunction with sister company PLX CARIBE SRL in Dominican Republic our main sales are in Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and Trinidad and Tobago, but our presence in the rest of the Caribbean is growing. Our solid reputation in sales and service make PLASTEX CORPORATION and PLX CARIBE SRL the most trusted names in plastics throughout the Caribbean. In March 1994 the reprocessing operation was established to work with excess or non-complying plastic parts and runners from local industries. The material is segregated by type and color, ground, cleaned, processed, packed and resold to other industries, or exported. This operation currently occupies over 40,000 sq ft in Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic and processes over 11 million pounds of material per year. The group has over 20 active employees, and over 100 years of experience in the plastics industry. We have more practical and technical knowledge than any other organization in the Caribbean. Our people have bachelors and masters degrees from MIT, Stanford, UPR, McGill and have worked with Nypro, Thomas & Betts, Flexible Packaging, Pfizer, Stryker, Pall, and Owens-Illinois among others. Our chairman founded Nypro Puerto Rico in 1973.
