Adam Fenton, CEO of National Composites, expressed enthusiasm about the new addition to the company portfolio, welcoming Northern Plastics into the National Composites Family. He said the acquisition strategically increases capacity and capability within the Thermo/Vacuumform plastic market, providing customers with a one-stop shop solution, even beyond composites.

Expanding Horizons in Thermoplastics

The acquisition is seen as a complementary expansion of National Composites' existing expertise in composites and metals.

This new acquisition of Northern Plastics further solidifies National Composites' dedication to providing comprehensive solutions and staying ahead of industry demands. Northern Plastics brings to National Composites a wealth of experience and a strong market position in the Thermo/Vacuumform plastic domain, enhancing the combined entity's offerings to a diverse customer base. This acquisition signals National Composites' forward-thinking approach and unwavering focus on customer-centric services and quality products, reinforcing its mission to deliver comprehensive solutions from initial design to final delivery.
