Ensinger’s John Tremblay, who will lead the new entity as v.p. & general manager, noted, “The addition of Poly-Tech’s engineering and manufacturing capabilities in high-performance materials truly compliment Ensinger Precision Component’s value proposition of providing our customers pellet to part solutions.”
Ensinger Precision Components specializes in injection molding high performance thermoplastic parts and near-net shapes, as well as PEEK tubes and the Plastock line of mechanical drive components. Bringing these capabilities together with Poly-Tech Industrial’s innovative design and manufacturing acumen will enable users to seamlessly take their application ideas from infancy to commercial maturity.
