Jay Kumar, President of Universal Plastics Group, stated “W. Kintz Plastics’ 40-year history of expertise in high quality thermoformed parts and focus on excellent customer service in key industries ranging from transportation to medical devices, is highly synergistic to our thermoforming division and our broader manufacturing capabilities, including injection molding and blow molding. As always, customer success remains our top priority and guiding focus. With this acquisition, we will further build upon the breadth and depth of value we provide to our customers.”

Universal Plastics Group is a family of plastics manufacturing businesses comprised of Universal Plastics Corporation (three facilities in Massachusetts and New York dedicated to custom thermoforming), Sajar Plastics (gas assist injection molding, straight injection molding & structural foam molding) based in Middlefield Ohio, and Premium Plastic Solutions (custom blow molding) based in Latrobe Pennsylvania.

Universal Plastics Group is owned by the Kumar family, who plan to hold and grow the business by making investments in capabilities, technology, capacity and talent. There will be no material changes to the former W. Kintz Plastics staff or to the operating facility in Upstate New York.

Dorset Partners, based in Dorset VT, served as the advisor on the transaction.
