About D & L Tooling & Plastics Inc
D & L Tooling & Plastics Inc has operated from Jacksonville, Texas since its founding in 1968. The facility houses 18 injection molding machines ranging from a 95-ton all-electric press (3.7-ounce shot) to a 1,100-ton unit (256-ounce shot), processing a wide array of commodity and engineering resins including polypropylene, polyethylene, ABS, polycarbonate, nylons, acetal, PEEK-family polymers such as PFA and PVDF, and numerous filled or modified grades. An in-house precision tool shop builds and repairs molds, while secondary operations cover hot stamping, solvent bonding, sonic welding, light assembly, packaging, decorating, shrink wrapping, tapping, drilling, heat staking, foil stamping, and labeling. Production is tracked in real time by a fourth-generation Mattec MES system, and automation including sprue pickers reduces cycle times. Bulk material storage in 50,000-pound silos supports high-volume runs, and a central chilling system lowers operating costs. The company serves telecommunications, medical, recreational, and livestock industries. Its cattle-tag line, produced since 1987, supplies ranchers nationwide with polyurethane ear tags that can be hot-stamped or numbered on both sides. Regional customers benefit from a central East Texas location within a 200-mile radius of Dallas, Fort Worth, Shreveport, Austin, and Houston, providing freight advantages. D & L emphasizes a zero-defect policy honed over five decades, competitive pricing, and rapid turnaround — blank cattle tags ship within 24 hours with free UPS shipping. The combination of in-house tooling, process monitoring, and automation is presented as the foundation for consistent quality and cost efficiency.
