Diversified
Plastics Corporation lives up to its name by molding a diversity of
plastics from expandable foam polymers to injection molded engineering
grade hard plastics.
Founded in Nixa,
Missouri in early 1969, DPC began in an abandoned cheese factory. In 1972, DPC moved
into injection molding and in 1973 built a new facility in Nixa. In 1976 it constructed a second
molding facility near Centralia, Missouri and that same year won a Gold
Award for Excellence in packaging design and service from the Society of
Plastics Industry.
DPC expanded into proprietary molding in 1977 with its Diversa-Shield exterior insulation sheeting. In 1982, DPC partnered with Huntsman and General Electric to develop a new heat-resistant co-polymer for use in molding interior components for the automotive industry. By 1983 they were molding the first part from this revolutionary new material—the Chevrolet Corvette dashboard. DPC stepped into
another arena in 1986—molding ‘lost foam’ patterns for the foundry
industry. They quickly became
one of the foremost molders of close-tolerance foam patterns. In 1987, DPC became
the first molder in the world certified to mold parts using General
Electric’s new GECET material.
AT&T certified DPC as a ‘Vendor Partner’ in 1989. In 1992 DPC’s injection molding
division was named a ‘Certified Supplier’ for General Electric. That same year, DPC earned Ford
Motor Company’s highest quality award—the Q1 rating. In I2006, DPC became ISO14001 certified. In 2002, DPC began a
new venture by molding IFCs—Insulated Concrete Forms for the construction
business. Since its humble
beginnings, Diversified Plastics has grown into a leader in the plastics
industry in the field of innovations, quality molding, setting standards
for service and timeliness, and in developing cutting edge
technology. Our
Mission Statement: Diversified Plastics will continually improve to meet all requirements and quality objectives. |
