Baldwin Park, CA – Universal Plastic Mold (UPM), a leader in plastic injection molding, is spearheading the onshoring movement, helping businesses bring manufacturing back to the U.S. With over 60 years of expertise, UPM delivers cost-effective, high-quality solutions while reducing supply chain risks and increasing efficiency for American industries.
As global supply chains face increasing disruptions, companies are turning to domestic manufacturers to regain control over production timelines and costs. UPM’s advanced plastic injection molding facility operates 24/7, 365 days a year, ensuring reliable, just-in-time delivery without the uncertainties of overseas manufacturing. By keeping production in the U.S., clients benefit from faster lead times, reduced shipping expenses, and enhanced quality control.
UPM’s state-of-the-art facility boasts a range of molding capabilities, with machine capacities spanning from 240 to 2,000 tons. This diverse range enables the company to accommodate projects of any scale while maintaining the precision and consistency required for industries such as automotive, consumer goods, industrial applications, and healthcare.
“Our commitment to onshoring is about more than just business - it’s about supporting the U.S. economy and providing customers with superior plastic injection manufacturing solutions,” said a Universal Plastic Mold spokesperson. “By producing in America, we eliminate many of the logistical challenges that come with outsourcing, ensuring higher efficiency, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness.”
UPM leverages lean manufacturing principles, including Kanban logistics and just-in-time production, to optimize operations and minimize waste. These strategies enable the company to maintain competitive pricing that rivals overseas manufacturers while upholding stringent quality and environmental standards. With a vertically integrated process - from mold design to product assembly and 3PL warehousing - UPM provides a seamless, end-to-end manufacturing solution tailored to each client’s needs.
