Wellman Plastics Recycling

Quality, Reliability, Performance, & Service have been the tenets of Wellman Plastics Recycling (WPR) throughout its 40-Year history and this dedication has allowed the company to grow into one of North America's leading compounders and suppliers of engineering and thermoplastic resins.

Through its subsidiary Wellman Engineering Resins, WPR offers a diverse selection of Nylon, Polyester, and Polypropylene resin products built to fit any material need. Wellman Plastics Recycling via its EcoLon® Product Line, is the only Resin Compounder on the market to offer a 100% Post-Consumer Recycled product to its customers. Not tied to the fluctuating price of Oil, yet still meeting all of your nylon product specifications, EcoLon® has quickly found a niche in the thermoplastic marketplace as the perfect raw material solution for the customer who desires to make a product that is cost-effective, high quality, and eco-friendly.

Who we are
Wellman Plastics Recycling (WPR) for the past 40-Years has been dedicated to creating high quality, high performance, environmentally supportive, and cost effective products for the automotive, lawn and garden, consumer products, and electronics industries. Despite our diverse product line, wide industry reach, and long history, our mission has always remained the same: to provide cost effective materials to our customers while concurrently providing the technical expertise and support to ensure complete customer satisfaction and project success.This commitment to both high product quality and customer support has allowed Wellman to remain one of the world’s top providers of both virgin and recycled thermoplastic resins.

Why we’re Different
Through its state of the art 2-Million Square Foot Manufacturing Facility and high-tech Research and Development Center, WPR has the in-house technical capabilities and on-staff technical expertise to create products that are specifically manufactured to fit a customer’s needs. This ability to think “outside the box” has allowed WPR to remain on the cutting edge of the thermoplastic industry and to consistently be the ‘go-to’ compounder for even the most complex of customer projects.

WPR views each customer relationship as a “partnership” where WPR first strives to understand the needs and goals of its customer and then subsequently creates a product that meets these individual specifications while still remaining cost effective. This win-win relationship has helped WPR’s customers to save money while not sacrificing product quality and has helped WPR to grow into one of the world’s largest specialty plastics and engineered resins compounders.
