This category contains sites concerned with the availability and servicing of new and pre-owned equipment used in the plastics manufacturing and processing industry and also, at least to some degree, by rubber and ceramic processing companies. Note: The emphasis in this category is not on producing plastics or making something out of plastic but on the equipment used for such purposes. Companies involved in producing parts and products out of plastic will be found in the Contract_Processors category; and companies producing plastic raw materials are indexed in the Materials category.Sites that more properly belong in these categories should be directed to them.
