Formerly Apex Resource Technologies and located in western Massachusetts in the Berkshires, our Pittsfield location operates as a precision injection molder and specializes in high-performance plastic injection molding and custom tooling services for thermoplastic and silicone components. Spectrum Plastics acquired this business in February 2018, and it has bioresorbable and biocomposite material injection molding technology. The operation was founded in 1983, began clean room molding in 1996, and bioabsorbable material handling and molding in 2006.
