Dow Jones Description

Norwesco, Inc. is North America's leading manufacturer of proprietary rotationally molded polyethylene tanks for agricultural, water, closed-top industrial and below ground septic and cistern applications. Norwesco was founded in 1939 in St. Paul, Minnesota under the name of Northwest Plastics, Inc. The name was changed in 1973 and at that time Norwesco was ranked as one of the oldest and largest plastic processors in the United States. Norwesco had been a publicly traded company until January 1988 when Norwesco, Inc. was acquired and taken private by its management and private equity investors. Our current financial partners include Allied Capital Corporation and Stone Arch Capital LLC. During the last ten years we have significantly expanded our geographic presence through the addition of facilities throughout the United States and Canada. We currently operate 15 plants and are the fifth largest rotational molder in North America. We attribute our success to our commitment to the highest levels of product quality and customer service. Our objective is to continue to provide these valued attributes to our customers and thus maintain our position as the industry leader in the polyethylene tank market.
