Diversification Opportunity EPC's reliance on a single large customer has exposed them to revenue risk as seen with Whirlpool-related closures in 2026. This creates a clear sales opportunity to pursue new North American OEMs across appliances, automotive, consumer electronics and medical devices, selling EPC's turnkey design-to-production capabilities. Emphasize services from design feasibility and CAD to MoldFlow analysis, prototyping and full mold build to shorten onboarding and win new, multi-year programs.

Turnkey Engineering The company offers end-to-end injection molding support, including design feasibility, CAD, MoldFlow, resin selection, appearance and surface texture, prototype, mold design and build, and production. This integrated stack is attractive to engineering teams seeking to compress development timelines and improve manufacturability, enabling early-stage design contracts and long-term molding programs with predictable quality.

Regional Manufacturing With a network of U.S. facilities plus an Ontario location, EPC can support regionalized manufacturing and nearshoring for North American customers, reducing lead times and supply chain risk. This footprint can be leveraged to win multi-site programs and provide responsive support across the US and Canada, appealing to OEMs pursuing localized production strategies.

Capacity Growth Historical investments and headcount growth, including 21 new jobs at the Lebanon plant in 2024 and expansion-related activity at Alabama and other sites, signal capacity ready to scale for new programs. Use this track record to attract customers with growing or high-volume requirements and to position EPC as a reliable ramp partner for large injection-molding programs.

Resilience Pitch Recent closures tied to reduced orders from a major customer highlight the importance of multi-source strategies and supply-chain resilience. Present EPC as a partner capable of supporting dual sourcing, program diversification, and risk mitigation through multi-site manufacturing, thereby helping potential clients reduce dependency on a single supplier and ensure continuity of supply.
