Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except Packaging) Manufacturing
NAICS 326113 · United States · 2022 edition
This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in converting plastics resins into plastics film and unlaminated sheet (except packaging).
Start the review with equipment breakdown.
For Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except Packaging) Manufacturing, the saved research highlights equipment breakdown, product liability, workers' compensation. Confirm how these arise in the actual operation, what controls are used and whether additional services change the proposed coverage.
Questions to ask
- What resin types and processing methods are used — extrusion, calendering, casting — and are any solvents or plasticizers involved?
- What are the primary end-use markets for the film and sheet — industrial, agricultural, construction, medical, or other critical applications?
- What is the replacement cost of the primary production equipment, and are there redundant lines or backup production capabilities?
- Is there any environmental exposure from resin handling, scrap disposal, or past operations on the property?
- What quality control and testing protocols are in place, and does the operation hold any relevant certifications?
- For Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except Packaging) Manufacturing, what should the underwriter know about use of chlorinated compounds, solvents, or plasticizers that create environmental contamination exposure?
- For Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except Packaging) Manufacturing, what should the underwriter know about significant prior product liability losses, particularly involving downstream property damage or bodily injury claims?
- For Unlaminated Plastics Film and Sheet (except Packaging) Manufacturing, what should the underwriter know about operations without formal quality control documentation or iso certification, especially when serving critical-use end markets?

Establishments in this class convert plastics resins — typically polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, or similar materials — into film and unlaminated sheet used in industrial, agricultural, construction, and consumer product applications. Core processes generally include extrusion, calendering, or casting, often running continuous production lines with automated winding and slitting equipment. Finished goods are typically sold to industrial fabricators, distributors, or end-use manufacturers rather than directly to consumers.
