Founded in 1983 in Milton, Ontario, Alcot Plastics Ltd. gained a reputation of being a responsive and qualified manufacturer of extruded polyethylene foam products. Jan Alac, the founder and owner of the company, envisioned a process of polyethylene foam extrusion that was easier and better than the complicated method used by his contemporaries. When that vision was brought to reality, the resulting system turned out to be far superior in terms of product quality and production efficiency. Some of the advantages include:Shorter startup time - only 15 minutes in comparison to other technologies that take up to a few hours  Possibility to run efficiently small orders or run only 8-hour shifts without creating waste   Possibility to make products on our smaller extruders that would normally require larger extruders running at low RPMConsistent extrusion and control system that adjusts the diameter if necessary
