Lakeland Plastics manufactures high-quality PETG extrusions designed to deliver exceptional clarity, impact resistance, and reliable performance for a wide range of applications.
PETG, or polyethylene terephthalate glycol, is a clear, tough, and highly versatile thermoplastic widely used in plastic extrusion applications that require durability, transparency, and excellent formability. Known for its impact resistance and smooth surface finish, PETG combines the strength of PET with improved flexibility and easier processing. Its clarity, chemical resistance, and food-safe properties make it an ideal choice for both functional and visually appealing extrusion profiles. At Lakeland Plastics, PETG extrusions are manufactured to deliver consistent quality, dimensional accuracy, and long-lasting performance across a wide range of industries.
Polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) is a modified version of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) that includes glycol in its molecular structure. The addition of glycol reduces brittleness, improves impact resistance, and enhances thermoformability and extrusion performance. PETG is a transparent, amorphous thermoplastic that extrudes smoothly, maintains excellent clarity, and resists cracking under stress. Its balance of strength, flexibility, and chemical stability makes it a reliable material for custom plastic extrusion products requiring both performance and visual appeal.
At Lakeland Plastics, custom PETG extrusion is designed to deliver clarity, durability, and precision for applications that demand both performance and visual appeal. PETG’s excellent impact resistance, smooth surface finish, and ease of fabrication make it an ideal choice for clear, protective, and decorative profiles. Whether you need transparent guards, custom display components, or functional enclosures, our team works closely with you to develop PETG extrusions that meet your exact dimensional, functional, and aesthetic requirements. From concept and tooling design to prototyping and full-scale production, we provide a hands-on, collaborative approach to ensure your PETG profiles perform reliably in real-world environments. While PETG offers outstanding clarity and toughness, we also support a wide range of other thermoplastics—ensuring the right material solution for every application.
Lakeland Plastics offers comprehensive PETG extrusion capabilities supported by advanced equipment, in-house tooling, and experienced engineering teams. PETG’s smooth processing characteristics, dimensional stability, and impact resistance allow us to produce high-quality extrusions with consistent clarity and precision. Our capabilities include:
With 12 production lines, modern cooling and sizing systems, and strict quality control standards, Lakeland Plastics can support everything from prototype development to high-volume production. Every PETG extrusion is manufactured with consistent dimensions, clean surface quality, and dependable performance—making it a trusted solution for industrial, commercial, medical, and consumer applications.
Friendly people quick loading and overnight parking if your in a pinch at the dock I’d suggest call ahead
Just delivered. The guy that unloaded me was awesome. In and out in 15 minutes. Give that man a raise!
I met with Lakeland Plastics this week. They were very professional to meet with. They were generous with their time and were helpful educating me on the plastics industry. While we weren’t a fit for each other in this instance , I can tell that anyone looking for extrusions would be in great hands. I appreciate the referrals and care they provided me.
Great company to work with, they hold a high standard of quality in the work they do with great communications!
We initially faced challenges with a product that required one side to be white and the other black. The previous process involved painting one side, which was time-consuming and resulted in inconsistent quality. However, discovering Lakeland Plastics was a game-changer for us. Their ability to extrude with one side white and the other black not only eliminated the need for painting but also improved our product quality tenfold.
The team at Lakeland Plastics has been outstanding. Mary at the front desk is a true jack-of-all-trades, always providing the answers we need quickly and efficiently. Mike, the owner, and our salesperson, Phil, along with the entire shipping department, have been incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout our partnership.
We highly recommend Lakeland Plastics for their innovative solutions and exceptional customer service.
We have a 40+ year business relationship with Lakeland Plastics. They are a key business partner offering excellent products, communication, and service.
Lakeland Plastics have really exceeded our expectations. Quality work and precise production have helped my buisiness keep moving forward. I highly recommend this company to anyone for any quality product/profile they may need.
Preferential treatment is the standard for all customers at Lakeland, allowing a level playing field for everyone involved. They have worked with us for over 10 years, helping to develop a patented product and providing outstanding customer service throughout. It has been an absolute delight working with honest and caring individuals who not only work toward getting things right the first time, but they work tirelessly at making sure goals are met. We consider Lakeland part of the family, and we highly recommend their attention to detail, top level customer service and exemplary design team.
Lakeland has been arguably one of the best manufacturers I have ever worked with. I came to them with a unique extrusion use case and they were able to help with my design. They managed the project with zero friction, or high added costs. The part quality is quite honestly flawless, meeting my specific use case need. The accessibility to the team is always easy and prompt. I didn’t wait days, or weeks for quotes and was able to get my product produced and to the market in a much shorter time frame than several other mfg’s I contacted quoted. Now my product is sold in over 40 states and two countries and proudly produced in the USA. I know this is a long post and I don’t usually do reviews. However, while I maybe a small fish compared to some of their production levels/ capabilities…..my involvement with Lakeland has felt more like family than being just a number on the balance sheet. They will have my business as long as my industry need exists. Hopefully a very long time. So grateful I found this needle in a hay stack. Especially if it is an extruded product you need….highly recommend giving them a shot.

Custom extrusions are a critical part of the design and production process across a wide range of industries and are integral to today’s manufacturing workflows. Unlike mass-produced standard extrusions, custom profiles are engineered to meet exact specifications, providing manufacturers with the flexibility to create highly functional and tailored products. As industries continue to evolve, these…
Two of the most common methods for producing plastic components are plastic extrusion and thermoforming. While both processes are widely used, they’re built for different types of parts, different production goals, and different design requirements. Choosing the right manufacturing process can shape everything that follows, from product performance and consistency to lead times and long-term…
Plastic extrusion powers many of the products people use every day, from the tubing that carries fluids in hospitals to the protective coatings on electrical cables. There are many different types of plastic extrusion, but overall, the process involves taking molten plastic and shaping it into continuous, perfectly engineered forms that meet exact design requirements.…
