Thermoplastic Resins and Compounds
Get the right material for the job and leave the guesswork behind.
Whether you're chasing performance or watching cost, we help you find a resin that fits your part, your process, and your bottom line.
When you’re developing a plastic part with high stakes for durability, appearance, or cost, material selection can make or break the project. Whether you're reworking a spec or starting from scratch, CPS helps ensure your part is matched with a thermoplastic that performs — in processing, in use, and on budget.
CPS isn’t a distributor or compounder. We work with material suppliers as your advocate, helping you source the right material from a deep network. That means no limited catalog, no pressure to oversell, and no biases toward one material or another. Just experienced support to help you avoid costly missteps and move faster from prototype to production.
Materials Matched to Process, Performance, and Price
Because we're unbiased and independent, we're able to help you weigh multiple options. Whether you need a commodity resin for a structural foam pallet or an engineered compound for an enclosure or insert-molded part, we've got you covered. Our knowledge of how specific materials behave in large-format and specialty molding processes helps reduce trial-and-error in your launch phase.
We routinely assist with sourcing and specifying:
- Polypropylene (PP) and High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
- ABS and other styrenics
- Filled or reinforced compounds for improved stiffness, impact, or temperature resistance
- Flexible materials like TPV and urethanes
- Recycled and biobased resins when sustainability is a priority
High Performance, Not High Pressure
You don't have to be an expert in thermoplastics to make smart material decisions. CPS serves as your technical liaison — helping translate application requirements into materials and process recommendations that your processor can execute successfully. And if specs change mid-stream? We can help shift the project to a better-fit processor or revise the material approach.
Where Materials Matter Most
We support customers across diverse sectors where thermoplastics must deliver both performance and value:
- Infrastructure and utility
- Storage, bulk handling, and pallets
- Firearms and defense components
- Foodservice and consumer equipment
- Recreational and outdoor products
If your part is large, your volume is high, or your design is complex, you’ll benefit from our experience sourcing and supporting thermoplastic materials that fit real-world constraints.
