Industries we serve — and the parts they trust us with.

Seven decades of molding for regulated, safety-critical, and high-volume markets. The common thread is a difficult part, an exacting material, and a customer who needs it right the first time.

Medical and dental

Housings, test and diagnostic components, sleep-therapy parts, dental instruments and imaging components, medication-delivery and pump components, and optical lenses — molded in FDA-compliant and medical-grade resins, with clean-room all-electric cells for the tightest work. Documentation follows your control plan under our ISO 9001 Certified quality system.

Defense, military and aerospace

Engineering resins such as PEEK, PPS, polycarbonate, PBT, and polyarylsulfone replace metal in adapters, bobbins, relays, arc barriers, cooling fixtures, FOD covers, battery caps, and helmet accessories. API's processing capability on difficult materials and its documented quality system make it a long-standing supplier to this sector.

Lighting and life safety

High-transparency, high-reflectivity, and high-visibility parts: exit and emergency sign housings and lenses, traffic signal lenses and controls, street-lamp covers, and fixture components. Flawless optical finishes and exact color matches are a specialty developed over more than two decades of lighting work.

Automotive and transportation

Connectors, bobbins, fuel-system components, pistons, sensors, cargo security, and metal- and rubber-replacement applications for OEM and aftermarket suppliers — where high-density engineering thermoplastics cut weight and cost without giving up performance.

Security and anti-theft packaging

API pioneered reusable, theft-deterring media and retail security packaging and still designs cases, containers, and locking mechanisms for high-value retail goods, pharmaceuticals (child-resistant with RFID integration), and electronics. See the self-service unlocking case study.

Point-of-purchase displays

Fasteners, hooks, bezels, pegs, end-caps, cases, and signage components for display manufacturers — often redesigned to add security features or to standardize parts across a product family.

Industrial, energy and consumer products

Battery and alternative-energy components, pump housings, electronic components, water-meter parts, construction and flooring components, protective gear, fasteners, and everyday consumer goods. Design, engineering, tool construction, molding, assembly, and shipping all sit in one Long Island facility, which keeps lead times short and your tooling in one known place.

Frequently asked questions

Do you mold medical-grade and FDA-compliant resins?

Yes. API processes FDA-compliant and medical-grade resins and runs all-electric clean-room cells for small, tight-tolerance medical and dental components under an ISO 9001 Certified quality system.

Can you handle defense and aerospace materials like PEEK and PPS?

Yes. High-temperature and high-performance engineering resins are a core competency, including glass-filled and metal-loaded compounds used for metal replacement.

Do you serve customers outside New York?

Yes. API ships nationwide from Central Islip, NY. Customers across the country work with us remotely, and many visit — the facility is about six miles from Long Island MacArthur Airport.
