Our Mission
Polysort is a Group Purchasing Organization for the plastics industry.
Our mission is to improve the buying leverage of plastics processors, increase market penetration for our strategic suppliers, and generate new business opportunities for our members.
We represent a pioneering generation of business people that are committed to shaping the continued evolution of our industry. To pilot this philosophy, Polysort has developed online resin purchasing tools to help facilitate the orders placed by members of our Private Resin Group Purchase. Our web site is designed to provide processors, suppliers and end-market customers with useful industry information, including industry news, dynamic member forums and links to companies and organizations. Polysort also provides companies the ability to generate new business opportunities via the Internet through our innovative Web marketing programs, including enhanced listings in our Links Directory, banner ads, sponsorship of keywords in our Search Engine, and Classified Ads.
Take a look at what we offer:
Trading Areas
Polysort offers several online resin purchasing tools, allowing industry members to purchase plastics materials conveniently and efficiently. For our Private Resin Group Purchase, we have aggregated an initial foundation of more than 100 million pounds of resin for various processors in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Indiana that have supported the Group Purchase concept. This has given these processors combined buying power that would not be possible by acting alone.
In addition to gaining purchasing leverage, members of our Private Resin Group Purchase also have the opportunity to win new processing projects through the RFQ leads generated by end-market users in our OEM Corner.
Membership to our Private Resin Group Purchase currently is open to qualified plastics processors in Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan. (See Private Group Purchase for qualification information.)
Polysort's Spot Exchange is designed to bring members competitive prices on popular prime resins.
