Since 1945 Aero-Plastics has earned the reputation as a leader in providing the highest quality products for aerospace, defense, and commercial applications. Founded as Western Model Works, the company incorporated as Aero-Plastics Inc in 1958. Rapid growth prompted a move into a 7,000 square-foot building in Renton, WA in 1966. Under current ownership the company further expanded and now occupies its own modern 21,000 square-foot manufacturing facility.
