Thermoplastic Materials • Technical Support • Manufacturing Solutions
Material knowledge that helps manufacturers move forward.
Simcoe Plastics Limited helps manufacturers make better material and process decisions through thermoplastic resins, additives, colourants, sustainable options and practical technical support.
Materials expertise that starts with the real job
More than a material supplier.
For more than four decades, Simcoe Plastics has supported manufacturers with thermoplastic resins, compounds, additives, colourants and processing solutions. The work is not simply about supplying a product. It is about understanding how that material will perform, how it will be processed and what the finished part needs to achieve.
Its office is located in Barrie, Ontario, while the company works with manufacturers across a wide range of industries and applications. Simcoe Plastics helps customers weigh material options, address production challenges and find practical pathways forward when a project requires more than a standard catalogue answer.
