A Plastic Extrusion Tooling Manufacturer Focused on Performance
Our state-of-the-art tool room does more than just create high-performance dies—it also manufactures the essential components needed to support the entire extrusion process. This includes precision-made vacuum calibrators, cutter bushings, fabrication fixtures, and other critical tooling elements required to produce your custom extrusion accurately and efficiently.
Advanced Extrusion Tooling & Technology—Built In-House
Since we make all of our tooling in-house, we retain complete control over the process and can rapidly make any changes that may be necessary to maximize production at the lowest possible cost.
Our tooling engineers have extensive knowledge as well as many years of experience in the production of streamlined plastic extrusion tooling. Whether your part is going to be vacuum calibrated, run on an air rack, or into a water trough, Lakeland’s tooling engineers can make the tooling required to produce the highest quality plastic extrusions.
Our tool room also produces custom, job-specific quality control measurement gauges necessary for our production team to properly inspect your part as it is produced. Lakeland’s tool room can operate 24 hours a day to help expedite the time required to produce your tooling and get it ready for production.
Plastic Extrusion Tooling Design Tailored to Your Part
A great plastic extrusion starts with smart design. At Lakeland Plastics, our team of engineers works closely with you to develop custom plastic extrusion tooling that’s built around your part’s specifications, end-use environment, and performance goals. Whether you’re starting from a rough sketch or a detailed CAD drawing, we offer hands-on design support to help refine your concept for optimal manufacturability and function.
Our design process includes AutoCAD assistance and access to 3D prototyping so you can evaluate your part before committing to full production. We also help identify design improvements early—saving time, reducing revisions, and ensuring your tooling delivers consistent, high-quality extrusions at scale. From simple profiles to complex geometries, our plastic extrusion design services ensure your part is engineered to succeed from the start.

What Companies Are Saying About Our Plastic Extrusion Tooling Services
Just delivered. The guy that unloaded me was awesome. In and out in 15 minutes. Give that man a raise!
Dave P.
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.
Justin B.
Great company to work with, they hold a high standard of quality in the work they do with great communications!
Lee M.
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.

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.
