Diversified
Plastics Corporation lives up to its name by molding a diversity of plastics
from expandable foam polymers to injection molded engineering grade hard
plastics. Founded
in Nixa, Missouri in early 1969, DPC began in an abandoned cheese factory.
In
1972, DPC moved into injection molding and in 1973 built a new facility in Nixa.
In 1976 it constructed a second molding facility near Centralia, Missouri
and that same year won a Gold Award for Excellence in packaging design and
service from the Society of Plastics Industry.
DPC expanded into proprietary molding in 1977 with its Diversa-Shield exterior insulation sheeting. In 1982, DPC partnered with Huntsman and General Electric to develop a new heat-resistant co-polymer for use in molding interior components for the automotive industry. By 1983 they were molding the first part from this revolutionary new material—the Chevrolet Corvette dashboard. DPC
stepped into another arena in 1986—molding ‘lost foam’ patterns for the
foundry industry. They quickly
became one of the foremost molders of close-tolerance foam patterns. In
1987, DPC became the first molder in the world certified to mold parts using
General Electric’s new GECET material. AT&T
certified DPC as a ‘Vendor Partner’ in 1989.
In 1992 DPC’s injection molding division was named a ‘Certified
Supplier’ for General Electric. That
same year, DPC earned Ford Motor Company’s highest quality award—the Q1
rating. In 1998, DPC became QS-9000
certified. In
2002, DPC began a new venture by molding IFCs—Insulated Concrete Forms for the
construction business. Since
its humble beginnings, Diversified Plastics has grown into a leader in the
plastics industry in the field of innovations, quality molding, setting
standards for service and timeliness, and in developing cutting edge technology. Our Mission Statement:
