About

The P1 Technologies Story

In 1949, we started as Plastic Products Company, a small company that focused on making hearing aid cords.

In 1987, we changed direction and became Plastics One Inc and moved to our current location in SW County of Roanoke, Virginia. We work directly with OEMs all over the world creating injection molded products and interconnect cables that are used by the medical industry. Our target market remains the same, yet our focus on additive manufacturing has broadened, enabling us to expand our customer reach. This comprehensive facility accommodates all departments in one place – including R&D, Engineering, Toolroom, Production, Sales, Customer Service, Procurement, Accounting, and Marketing – collaborating seamlessly as a unified team to deliver top-notch service to our customers.

In 2001, we became employee-owned and empowered our employees by sharing the profits.

In 2013, we became ISO 13485:2003 certified, an additional quality management registration to the ISO 9001:1994 certification that we were awarded in 2000. This registration allows us to manufacture devices for the medical industry. Today we are certified to ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001:2015.


Our dedicated employee-owners are focused on putting our customers first by incorporating technological advancements in our manufacturing processes. P1 Technologies has added impressive 3D printing machines used to print conceptual parts for customers to review before committing to large-scale production. We’ve added cleanrooms for the manufacturing of medical devices and medical pouch sealing. We’ve also incorporated a new type of employee, a cobot (robot)- these robots work directly with our production team for handling small manufactured parts.

2019 was an exciting year for Plastics One. The company celebrated its 70th anniversary and announced a change to our name, transitioning to P1 Technologies. The new name reinforces our commitment to growth while maintaining our roots. Currently, there are 350 employee-owners at P1 Technologies, all experts in their fields and eager to make a difference by providing high-quality parts to the world. We are proud of where we’ve been and where we’re going. We are P1 Technologies.
