Founded in 1970, Metaplast was a leading manufacturer of downstream and auxiliary equipment for the plastics industry. Metaplast was purchased by Conair in 1997 and now operates under the Conair name at the company’s headquarters in Pennsylvania.
Although Metaplast is no longer an independent company, its brand-name machines were manufactured for durability and are still in use throughout various polymer applications and industries. Metaplast equipment remains popular on the secondary market, including here at Arlington Machinery, as the company is renowned for a variety of plastics extrusion machines, including:
- Belt, Cleated, and Pipe Haul Offs
- Pullers
- Fly-Knife Cutters
- Traveling Cut-Off Saws
- Calibration Stands and Tables
- Vacuum Sizing Tanks
- Ancillary Equipment
