As well as growing the business with those products to customers with similar applications, Universal Plastics also follows a line of customer class driven products. This is where certain products are restricted to a class of users or customers due to the combined development of a product or group
of products.
Technical products are adopted by customers who can be classified as technical enthusiasts, visionaries or pragmatics. Any three of these categories require the same set of standards – quality products delivered on time.
