About Hansen Plastics Corporation
Hansen Plastics Corporation operates from Elgin, Illinois, where it was founded in 1971 by Elmer Hansen. The company transitioned to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan in 1991 and became fully employee-owned by 1998, a structure that remains central to its culture and decision-making. The shop runs more than 70 injection molding presses ranging from 28 to 500 tons across over 150,000 square feet of production space. Core processes include horizontal, vertical/insert, and multi-material molding, supported by decoupled molding and RJG scientific molding with cavity-pressure transducers. Value-added operations cover in-mold decorating, hot stamping, pad printing, machining, ultrasonic welding, thermal insertion, assembly, and custom packaging. Hansen serves OEMs and manufacturers across North America in automotive, life safety, appliances, fluid movement and water treatment, transportation (non-automotive), construction, and agriculture. Long-term customers include Elkay in water delivery and Motive Products in automotive tools. The company traces its differentiation to its employee-owner model and a founding motto of "do it right the first time." Its quality system is built on ISO 9001:2015 with statistical process control looped into business systems, aiming for zero defects through data-driven process control and lean manufacturing practices.
