Management
Companies are built by people. It is they who set goals, make decisions and perform their assigned tasks. It is they who build the company’s position through their commitment. A good team of employees is the most valuable asset.

Sales Department
Sales Department
Competence builds relationships
Members of the sales department are able to perfectly recognise the needs of potential customers and offer them the best product. In this regard competences are the most important, so employees of this department are experts in their field who have extensive knowledge about the manufacturing process, product offer and plastics processing.
Our customers can count on quick and direct contact with members of the sales department, who are tasked not only with presenting the optimal offer, but also with giving advice and providing comprehensive information about the manufacturing process, storage, delivery times and payments. The sales department also includes our network of salespeople. Their task is to present the offer and the rules for building a mutual relationship. They also collect feedback related to order handling and product quality.
Manufacturing Department
Manufacturing Department
Perfection is out middle name
Even the most sophisticated machines cannot guarantee the highest quality if there is no man to operate them. The manufacturing department includes the design department. It is here where the most important decisions affecting the final precision, quality and efficiency of manufacturing are made. The design department comprises engineers with extensive knowledge and skills in the field of plastic manufacturing. The same applies to those who work directly in manufacturing. These employees are trained to operate modern injection moulding machines and production lines and guarantee that orders are fulfilled in accordance with customers’ specifications. Smooth manufacturing is ensured by the department’s management team, comprising experienced personnel.
Quality Control Department
Quality determines diligence
Trust and control
We have been following this principle for years, operating under the assumption that even the best can make mistakes. At Plastrol, all departments are responsible for quality. The sales department identifies the exact needs of the customer, and the manufacturing department fulfills orders. However, the greatest responsibility is shouldered by employees of the quality control department. Much like in case of environmental protection, we have adopted very strict assessment criteria for controlling finished products. Every defect is immediately reported to the manufacturing department. This immediate feedback allows us to eliminate all irregularities on an ongoing basis.
Warehousing Department
Warehousing Department
This chain cannot be broken
Logistics plays a very important part in the whole manufacturing process. Employees of this department are responsible not only for storing finished products and delivering them to customers. They are also tasked with supplying the plant with the necessary raw materials.
Their knowledge and experience allow them to plan the ordering and shipping processes in a way that ensures that all deadlines related to order handling are met. Members of the department use modern IT systems to effectively manage Plastrol’s logistics and ensure that the supply chain is uninterrupted. At the same time, over the years they have built relationships with transport company representatives. They perform the best, especially in crisis situations.
Administration Department
Administration Department
Someone has to watch over all this
Accounting, human resources, occupational safety and health, office work… These are only some of the issues that employees of this department deal with on a daily basis. All administration employees make sure that other Plastrol employees can focus on their tasks. Analyses, figures, regulations, orders, communications, maintaining contacts – it is hard to manage any company without all this.
The department comprises excellent professionals. They are also precise, accurate, diligent and resourceful. Just like everyone else at Plastrol.
