We provide full technical support to our customers through Alternative Rubber & Plastics staff and on-site lab services. In fact, much of our extraordinary growth in the past few years is due in part to the high degree of consistent technical support offered to all of our customers, regardless of the size of their order. Our sales staff is composed of direct and indirect salespeople, covering all of North America. Sales support and administration is accomplished through our main office in Amherst, New York.

Alternative Rubber & Plastics is confident that its global strategy, combined with its vertical integration, lower costs, superior customer services, high quality, sales ingenuity and responsiveness will prove to be lasting competitive advantages. Alternative Rubber & Plastics is positioned to meet challenges and seize the opportunities of tomorrow. Our goal is to build on its foundation by staying close to our customers and by responding to their changing needs.
