    CLEARWATER, MN, February 20, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- T.O. Plastics has added new extrusion equipment in its Clearwater plant that will enable the thermoforming company to increase its capacity for ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) and HIPS (high-impact polystyrene) roll stock for use in its own operations and for sale to other companies.

The company plans to offer utility or prime grade HIPS and ABS plastic sheet in gauges from .015" to .070". Roll widths are 20" to 30.75" with a 6" core size.

The extruded plastic sheet is available in black or white as standard colors, or custom colors made to order, in truckload quantities.
