The Crown Plastics Story

The Crown Plastics story showcases the perseverance and dedication of the American spirit. It’s a story that many of us in manufacturing can relate to.

The founder of Crown Plastics, Bob Ellerhorst, spent most of his early life in an orphanage. Those humble beginnings didn’t predict the massive success he would have later in life, but they did install perseverance and determination. Bob had a vision and saw opportunities that others couldn’t. 

As a professor of chemistry, Bob had a unique view of plastics and materials. When a friend came to Bob with an idea to purchase a highly specialized machine that made Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) from another company, he saw an opportunity. Bob and his partner purchased the patents, equipment, and rights to the machine. They owned the technology, and Crown Plastics was born.

Crown has been adept at finding markets and a need for its slick, impact-resistant, and friction-reducing material based on Bob's vision. Crown UHMW provided a vital safety update to the Ford Pinto in the 1970s. It was the superior material the snowboarding industry needed in the 1990s.  

Bob was right about the potential of UHMWPE, but it wasn’t an easy path. As markets dried up and needs receded, so did sales. This led to bankruptcy and lean years. But Bob and Crown's conviction and innovation never wavered.

Today, Crown is a leading supplier of UHMW solutions. From dominating the snowboard market to recently producing a premier product for distribution and material handling, Crown has built a worldwide presence guided by Bob’s perseverance and dedication to the American spirit.
