How we can Help you

Technical Service From Concept Through Production.


Developing a new product or component that requires more than selecting resin? We work alongside engineers, product designers, program managers, and injection molding and extrusion shop owners to help identify and specify the right thermoplastics for their applications.

From CAD part design and tooling considerations to material shrinkage, thermal expansion, dimensional stability, and processing requirements, our expertise helps you anticipate potential challenges, improve manufacturability, and avoid costly setbacks.

With experienced technical sales representatives throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico, GP provides personalized, responsive support at every stage of development.

Whether you need an off-the-shelf engineering resin, a custom-compounded formulation, materials for prototype runs, assistance with testing and approvals, or dependable production supply, we connect you with the materials, manufacturers, and technical resources to move your project forward, from small quantities to full truckloads.

From initial concept through production kick off we've got you covered and would love the opportunity to earn your business.
