Over the past four years, RPM has devoted itself to developing and manufacturing material-handling products with special emphasis on affordable plastic pallets of uncompromising quality. The essence of RPM’s technology is in its processing systems, which enable the use of recycled plastic resins that enhance strength and reduce costs. Buying recycled products makes sense for your business and the environment.

RPM has developed new products that were borne out of the needs of its customers. In addition to standard size pallets, such as the universal 40”X48”, the Company offers custom size pallets of virtually any size and configuration for specific material-handling needs. Another RPM first, is a true non-slip deck surface available on custom pallets when specified.

RPM manufactures its plastic pallets by injection molding and compression molding. Some of RPM’s custom pallets are made from extrusion-molded plastic parts that resemble wood – but that’s where the similarity ends, as the plastic components are stronger, last significantly longer and reflect a substantial reduction in cost-per-trip.

Whether your current pallet needs are for rackable, nestable or special applications, we can help solve your material-handling problems with sound solutions that meet or exceed your requirements. RPM takes pride in the fact that it serves many of the nation’s top companies – firms in a wide cross-section of US industries that demand quality and very competitive pricing.

In 2001, RPM became a publicly trading company with its RPMM listing on NASDAQ. The Company believed that this public forum would aid the Company in its goals for expansion. RPM manufacturers and warehouses its products in the Midwest and has distributors located in key markets across the US.

RPM ANNOUNCES NEW 48"x48" "GRIPPER" PALLET

RPM introduced the “Gripper”, a 48” X 48” Plastic Pallet, which has been released today and orders are already piling in. This new pallet, that is priced below other 48” X 48” pallets, was an instant success. It combines true, non-skid surfaces on the tops and bottoms and is ready for 55-gallon and 35-gallon loads.

Small holes that house rubber grommets are the stabilizing forces that hold the pallet’s load in place. This new topography has the advantage of placing as many grommets as is necessary to hold all kinds of loads.

RPM ROOFING TILE PROJECT

Alert to other applications for the same resins processed and used in our plastic pallets, we explored the possibility of using other polymers in roofing tile. Remember, those funny looking barrel, shake and slate? Well, soon with our help they’ll be in plastic and that’s for sure. And if you’re not on top of them, you won’t be able to tell the difference either.

RPM Roofing Products will offer something not found in other roofing products, such as extreme fire and flame resistance, superior impact resistance, absolute water resistance, heat deflection, uncommon durability, light weight and aesthetic beauty.

After our testing, we will proceed with two styles. First, will be Spanish tile and slate. After that, we will have shake and flat tile. If you’re looking for an inexpensive barrel tile, why not wait till we can oblige.

NEW FACILITY FOR BUSINESS

We opened the 24001 S. Western Avenue, Park Forest, Illinois just ten months ago and already, we’re cramming for space.

What appeared to be just another grinding operation, we’re now moving things around to do our custom wood pallet assembly. This is an important part of our sales and we want it to be compatible with our just-in-time delivery system.
