StreamLine Extrusion, Inc. has been formed for the purpose of providing three primary services to its customers. These services are:
1. The design and manufacturing of plastic and rubber extrusion dies, and other equipment and tooling related to the plastics and rubber processing industries.
2. Providing on-site extrusion process assistance and product development consulting services.
3. Providing on-site teaching and training services of extrusion processing technologies.
At StreamLine Extrusion, were always working on making a better tube, hose, pipe, or profile. The difference is that we dont make them on a daily basis, you do. What we do is maintain a twenty-year track record of innovative design, thinking and problem solving, that, at times, has revolutionized the extrusion industry.
Contact us to help resolve your extrusion tooling, process and product consulting, or training requirements.
