About Profile Plastics

Profile Plastics manufactures custom thermoformed plastic parts for OEM equipment from its Lake Bluff, Illinois location. Its core processes are pressure forming, vacuum forming and twin-sheet forming, supported by design assistance and secondary assembly services. Pressure forming serves detailed visible covers and enclosures; vacuum forming suits simpler panels and utility parts; twin-sheet forming produces hollow structures. The company works with customers on process selection, material choices and how mating parts will fit together. Its published quality program describes dimensional inspection using CMM equipment and laser scanning, along with first-article and production-approval documentation. Profile also offers mechanical assemblies, decoration and kitting so a project can progress beyond an individual formed shell. Contact the team through its project inquiry page or call 847-604-5100 to discuss drawings, quantities, surface appearance and assembly needs.
