The Aoki is a versatile injection blow-molding machine that is able to mold a variety bottles and containers from narrow neck to wide mouth.  With the Aoki, Apex Plastics gained the added capability of running PET material.  This has opened up a wide range of new products for Apex to pursue.

"The new equipment is a key component of our overall growth strategy," says Damon Neff, President of Apex Plastics.  "We added this press based on the needs of one of our customers, but it will also allow us to grow in to new market segments, work with new materials and continue to stay ahead of our customers' needs and provide them with an unmatched customer service."

Apex Plastics completed a full renovation of their Brookfield, Missouri facility in 2014 to accommodate growth and streamline production flow.  As part of a commitment to continued improvements, Apex Plastics has made several capital investments in equipment, technology and their facility.  In all, over the past five years Apex has invested nearly $5 million in upgraded equipment, technology and facilities to grow with client needs.
