History

John L. Haugsrud, Founder

After plastics pioneer John L. Haugsrud helped in the development of transfer thermoset technology during the 1940s, he was astute enough to recognize that the emerging marketplace demands for precision engineering and high tolerance plastics would require a company that could meet and supply these increasingly complex needs.

So, in 1968, he founded Arlington Industries as a state-of-the-art resource to meet the industry’s changing needs. Today, his son, John N. Haugsrud, President, carries on the legacy of creative design and precision engineering that began in 1968.

Quadra-Tek™ is a small plastic injection molding company with big capabilities for tight-tolerance thermosets and thermoplastics. Along with our secondary and sub-assembly capabilities, the company is uniquely positioned to accommodate small or large volume orders for test and full production runs.
