Our Story

Family-run. American-made. Extruding since 1971.

Patwin Plastics has been synonymous with quality and innovation in plastic profile extrusion for over 50 years, a family business that still does things the right way.

Finished cellular PVC columns, deck, and trim installed on a classic brick home porch built by Patwin Plastics customers.

Patwin Plastics Inc. was founded in 1971 by Thomas Hannen in Linden, New Jersey, with a simple idea: build a precision extrusion shop that customers could rely on, run by people who actually answer the phone.

More than five decades later, the company remains family-managed by the Hannen family, a manufacturer of extruded plastic products serving primarily the furniture and building-material industries, with customers across the entire United States.

From our plant at 2300 E. Linden Avenue, we design tooling, extrude profiles, match colors, and finish parts under one roof. It's a focused operation, and that focus is the point: it's how a roughly 20-person, family-run shop holds tolerances and lead times that keep customers coming back, year after year.

What We Stand For

Three things we don't compromise on

Quality

Profiles held to dimension run after run, because we own the tooling and the process that determine it.

Innovation

Over 50 years of solving customers' profile problems, from custom cross-sections to hard color matches.

Dependability

A family-run, US-based partner with consistent output and the responsiveness a big supplier can't match.
