Consulting<br />
<strong>Plastic</strong> <strong>Engineering</strong> <strong>Associates</strong>, <strong>Inc</strong>. (PEA) has been in continuous service to the<br />
thermoplastics extruded foam industry since 1968. Jim Fogarty (Chem. Eng.) was<br />
instrumental in developing the modern tandem foam extruder and is the founder of PEA.<br />
In his long and storied foam career, Jim has been a consultant, manufacturer, inventor<br />
and innovator. His client’s list is a veritable who’s who in the industry, and includes Shell,<br />
Mobil, Pactiv, Sekesui, Japan Styrene Paper, Daicel Chemical, Sealed Air, Nova Chemicals,<br />
and many, many more. PEA has designed & commissioned several turnkey foam plants<br />
throughout the world. Jim’s three sons, David, Bill and Matthew, work with Jim in the<br />
business. Combined, they have collectively over 150 years of foam experience. PEA’s<br />
sister company, <strong>Plastic</strong> <strong>Engineering</strong> <strong>Associates</strong> <strong>Licensing</strong>, <strong>Inc</strong>. (PEAL) was incorporated in<br />
1998 and licenses Jim’s patented Turbo- Screws® feed screw technology for polystyrene<br />
and poly lactic acid foam extrusion.<br />
PLA Foam Equipment & Extruders<br />
Since we have the inventor of the modern tandem foam extruder as our founder, and<br />
have spent six years developing extruded PLA foam equipment and process technology<br />
with the world’s largest PLA resin manufacturer, NatureWorks, LLC, we like to think we<br />
have learned a thing or two about what a PLA tandem foam extruder should look like in<br />
terms of its equipment, configuration, design and function. We have already designed the<br />
ancillary equipment for extruded PLA foam (screws, dies, etc.). We’ve written the<br />
specifications for the ultimate PLA foam extrusion system. We think there will be a<br />
tremendous market for PLA tandem foam equipment and extruders in the future. If you<br />
presently are a foam equipment manufacturer, or a company which wants to participate<br />
in the greening of the extruded polystyrene foam industry, contact us for a confidential<br />
discussion.<br />
Simplify your PLA Foam Development
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT<br />
Product development is our specialty. Many opportunities exist in extruded PLA foam for<br />
food packaging and have yet to be capitalized. We are experts in closed and open cell<br />
foam extrusion. Your company can be in the extruded foam PLA business for cold case<br />
meat trays, for example, in under two years starting from scratch. If you’re an existing<br />
manufacturer of thermoplastic food packaging meat trays, your company can be up and<br />
running making extruded PLA foam in as little as six months.<br />
PROCESS TECHNOLOGY<br />
PLA Foam Extrusion 1<br />
Process technology is available for all aspects of your extruded PLA foam needs. PEA<br />
personnel will commission your equipment and process, provide you with recipes and<br />
train your personnel.<br />
SUPPORT<br />
PEA provides as little or as much support as your company needs. Your success is<br />
important to us. We truly believe and practice our motto “Your Success is Our<br />
Success”. We are well known for our fast response time.<br />
