Midwest Automotive Presence KN Platech America operates in the automotive blow-molded components space with current work for Honda, Nissan, Toyota and Tesla, anchored by a Shelbyville, Indiana plant near Indianapolis.

Medical Plastics Capability The company already manufactures hospital bed boards for Hill-Rom and holds ISO 9001 certification, signaling robust quality systems. This positions KN Platech to pursue more medical device and hospital equipment customers requiring reliable blow-molded plastic parts, medical-grade materials, and proven quality processes.
Strategic JV Access As a Nagase and Kyoraku joint venture, KN Platech benefits from global manufacturing affinity and potential access to Japanese suppliers and resin technology, enabling outreach to multinational buyers seeking steady, globally integrated plastics partners.
