Plastifab Acquires R&M Pole Line Product Line, Strengthening Market Leadership

Expanding Our Capabilities to Better Serve Our Customers

Plastifab Industries Inc., a portfolio company of Regimen Equity Partners, is excited to announce the acquisition of the R&M Pole Line product line. This strategic acquisition, completed in March 2025, enhances Plastifab’s product offerings, strengthens its market presence, and reinforces its commitment to providing high-quality Pole Line hardware solutions across North America.

With this acquisition, Plastifab will integrate R&M’s Pole Line Protective Guard assets into its operations, ensuring continuity for existing customers while unlocking new opportunities for growth and innovation.

Why This Acquisition Matters

This acquisition represents a significant step in Plastifab’s ongoing strategy to expand its footprint in the plastics industry. Founded in 1967, R&M Plastics built a strong reputation for quality and innovation in custom plastic extrusion. By bringing the R&M Pole Line product line under the Plastifab umbrella, we are:

• Expanding our product offerings to serve a broader market.
• Enhancing our capabilities in plastic extrusion and pole line protection solutions.
• Strengthening our supply chain by integrating production into our Montreal facility.

The R&M Pole Line product name will continue under Plastifab, ensuring a seamless transition for customers who have relied on these products for decades.

Welcoming Dan Ritchie to the Plastifab Team

As part of the transition, Dan Ritchie, former President of R&M Plastics, has joined Plastifab in a position of R&M Pole Line Product Sales. Dan’s industry expertise and deep knowledge of the product line will help ensure a smooth transition for customers and continued growth for the brand.

“We are thrilled that Plastifab will be servicing our Pole Line customers moving forward,” said Dan Ritchie. “This transition ensures continuity for the business my family has built over decades while opening new opportunities for growth and innovation.”

Commitment to Excellence and Innovation

Plastifab’s CEO, Ryan Antoniadis, emphasized how this acquisition aligns with the company’s broader strategy:

“This acquisition marks a significant step forward for Plastifab as we continue to expand our presence in North America. R&M’s Pole Line Protective Guard business has a long-standing history of delivering high-quality plastic extrusion products to a loyal customer base. We are excited to integrate its capabilities into our operations, enhancing our ability to serve customers with an expanded product line, improved capabilities, and greater innovation.”

Plastifab remains committed to delivering the highest quality plastics solutions and ensuring a smooth transition for all existing R&M customers.

Looking Ahead

With the addition of R&M Pole Line, Plastifab continues to position itself as a leader in the plastics industry, expanding our capabilities and reinforcing our reputation as North America’s trusted plastic partner. Customers can expect the same high standards of quality, service, and reliability that both Plastifab and R&M Plastics have built their reputations on.
