It is with great sadness that we announce the closure of Bangor Plastics. Our closure comes as a result from a severe downturn in Aerospace and Defense work. Throughout the past 75 years, we were able to experience great success due in large part to our customers, suppliers, and employees - both past and present. We would like to thank our current employees for their overwhelming support and hard work, making our controlled shutdown possible. I have been blessed by the people I have worked with, the relationships that have developed and the diverse education I have experienced.

As we near our closure, several suppliers and customers have approached me about my future in the plastics industry. As a result of these conversations, I have made the decision to open a consulting service with a primary focus on Thermoset processing and the application of Thermoset materials. My goal is to help customers and suppliers through plastic manufacturing projects, workflow and more. If you are interested in working with me, you can reach out to me at (269) 214-1168 or email me at [email protected]
