Granger Plastics Company Celebrates 32 Years of Rotational Molding Innovation

Sep 22, 2026

Ohio manufacturer marks more than three decades of engineering, manufacturing and custom rotational molding while continuing to invest in the industry's future.

-- Granger Plastics Company is celebrating its 32nd anniversary this month, marking more than three decades of growth, engineering innovation and custom rotational molding since the company's founding in September 1994. During that time, the company has expanded its capabilities while remaining focused on solving challenging manufacturing problems for customers across a wide range of industries.

What began as a rotational molding operation serving custom manufacturing needs has developed into a full-service organization supporting OEMs, manufacturers, engineers and product developers. Today, Granger Plastics Company provides integrated services spanning product development, design and engineering, mold and tooling fabrication, rotational molding, secondary trim and assembly, packaging, warehousing and fulfillment.

Throughout its history, Granger has focused heavily on custom applications, including large, complex and demanding rotationally molded products that require close coordination between design, tooling and production. That experience has resulted in products and solutions serving industries ranging from aerospace and defense to material handling, transportation, infrastructure, environmental applications, safety products and other specialized commercial and industrial markets.

For Granger, 32 years in business represents more than longevity. The company's continued growth has been driven by an engineering-centered approach to manufacturing and a willingness to tackle projects that require unconventional solutions, specialized tooling or unique production methods.

Granger's vertically integrated capabilities allow customers to work with a single manufacturing partner through multiple stages of product development. Engineering considerations can be addressed before tooling is constructed, molds can be fabricated and modified in-house, and manufacturing and secondary operations can be coordinated as part of the overall production program.

Those capabilities continue to support Granger's emphasis on custom rotational molding for OEMs and manufacturers seeking durable plastic components engineered around specific performance requirements. The company's experience allows customers to address design, tooling, production and finishing considerations as part of a coordinated manufacturing process.

“Thirty-two years in manufacturing doesn't happen by standing still,” said Shawn Cravens, General Manager of Granger Plastics Company. “We've continued to grow by taking on difficult projects, investing in engineering and manufacturing capabilities, and finding solutions when the standard answer wasn't good enough. As we enter our 33rd year, that same mindset continues to guide where Granger goes next.”

Granger's 32nd year has also included a significant expansion of the company's educational presence within the rotational molding industry. In August, the company announced the launch of RotationalMolding.com, an expanding technical and educational resource designed to make practical information about rotational molding more accessible to engineers, manufacturers, OEMs, product designers and others evaluating the manufacturing process.

The website brings together information covering the rotational molding process, product design, mold construction, materials, manufacturing considerations, product applications and other technical topics informed by decades of real-world production experience. Additional technical articles, manufacturing guides, application information and educational content are planned as the site continues to expand.

Rather than serving solely as a corporate website, RotationalMolding.com is being developed as a long-term industry resource. The initiative reflects a broader goal for Granger as the company begins its 33rd year: combining accumulated manufacturing experience with continued investment in engineering, education and future product development.

While the anniversary provides an opportunity to recognize the company's history, Granger remains focused on what comes next. New products, evolving performance requirements and advances in engineering continue to create opportunities for rotational molding across established and emerging markets.

Granger intends to continue investing in the knowledge, equipment, tooling capabilities and manufacturing experience required to address those opportunities. After 32 years, the company's underlying objective remains much the same as it was when Granger began in 1994: solve difficult problems, manufacture quality products and develop solutions that exceed customer expectations.
