    1. Blow Molding

    PTI joins Sipa Group

    March 23, 2021
    The two companies believe the partnership will enhance business opportunities for PTI's extrusion equipment and Sipa's blow molding equipment.

    Sipa Sp.A. and Plastic Technologies Inc. (PTI) announced they have forged a strategic partnership in which PTI has become part of the Sipa Group. 

    Both companies anticipate the arrangement will spark increased visibility and new business opportunities. PTI brings its package development and material expertise to Sipa, and access to Sipa’s equipment will allow PTI to improve its turnkey offerings. 

    Based in Holland, Ohio, PTI offers design, engineering and evaluation of plastic packaging. Sipa, headquartered in Vittorio Veneto, Italy, manufactures blow molding machinery and offers bottle manufacturing and filling technologies.

    American Plastic Molding
    American Plastic Molding in Scottsburg, Ind., is beginning the new year with a new 900-ton molding machine from Milacron. Acquired late last year, it replaces a 725-ton molding machine that took up the same footprint. Adam Auffart, VP of sales and marketing for APM, says tariffs proposed by President-elect Donald Trump might steer more customers to the shop's mold-making and molding services.
