Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except Packaging) Manufacturing

NAICS 326113 - Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except Packaging) Manufacturing encompasses the production of unlaminated plastic sheets and films not used for packaging purposes. This category includes manufacturers producing specialized plastic materials such as acrylic, Delrin, PTFE (Teflon), and other engineering-grade plastic sheets with specific thicknesses, dimensions, and material compositions. These products are typically used in industrial, aerospace, maritime, and defense applications requiring precise material specifications and quality standards.

The federal contract awards in this NAICS category demonstrate consistent procurement activity primarily by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), with contract values ranging from hundreds to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Frequent contractors include Laird Plastics Inc., M.S.M. Industries, Polymershapes LLC, and Black Bay Aerospace LLC. Most awards are firm-fixed-price purchase orders with delivery periods between 30 and 215 days. While many contracts are not set aside, there are notable opportunities for small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, and other designated business categories. Delivery locations predominantly include various DLA Distribution Centers across the United States, such as Puget Sound, Oklahoma, and San Diego.

Recent federal contract opportunities continue the pattern of DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment and DLA Land and Maritime seeking plastic sheet materials. Solicitations typically request specific quantities of plastic sheets with precise material specifications, such as Delrin, PTFE, or acrylic, in various thicknesses and dimensions. Most opportunities are set aside for small businesses or service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, with quantities ranging from 7 to 2,000 units. Delivery timelines generally span 49 to 215 days after order, and all opportunities require electronic quote submissions with strict compliance to military specifications and standards.
