Welcome to Plastic-Craft: "From our humble beginnings in 1934 as a manufacturer of engraved signs and nameplates, we have grown into a worldwide supplier of all types of Plastic Materials and Plastic Parts, Components, and Assemblies."
Pro Plastics Inc - Plastics for Industry
Pro Plastics Inc - Plastics for Industry: "Distributor of Sheet, Rod & Tubing
Specializing in Custom Plastic Parts
Pro Plastics has over 35 years experience in the industry as a full service distributor of sheet rod & tube, and manufacturer of custom plastic parts. Having a reputation built on quality, we have the capabilities to provide sheet, rod and tubing from stock or parts that are machined, molded or extruded with secondaries.
We are the complete source for most plastic requirements from prototype to production. Our full service staff will work with you from inception to delivery to provide the solutions to meet your business needs."
-Make custom plastic parts
-Need to have the design first to have them figure out what the minimum order is and how long it would take because it all depends on the size of the part.
-They take technical drawing by fax. (pdf format)

Design Competition - smart textiles
2008 Materials Design Competition
The three THEMES of this year’s competition are:
Industrial/Technical and Sports Materials–
Examples: composites, aircraft or automotive components, industrial and technical fabrics, architectural or geo-synthetic materials, industrial filters and advanced sporting equipment or sports garments.
Medical, Biomedical/Protective, Materials and Devices–
Examples include active and/or reactive materials, such as self-detoxifying materials or reactive barrier membranes, which protect the wearer against chemical agents, biological agents and projectiles/improvised explosive devices. chemical/biological protection garments and protection for first responders or soldiers.
Smart/Electronic/Optoelectronic and Nano-materials–
Structures that incorporate computing, sensing, monitoring, imaging and/or broadcasting electronics directly into the material to attain particular end uses would be appropriate for this category. Examples of projects suitable for submission to this category include imaging technologies, camouflage/ electromagnetic management, optical materials, anti-counterfeit materials, conducting polymers, wearable electronic garments, functional nano-materials and integrated electronic or photonic material devices for multifunctional assemblies.
