Tim Bayer, President of Hansen Plastics Corporation, Presents at the MAPP (Manufacturers Association for Plastics Processors) Benchmarking & Best Practices Conference

The Hansen Plastics Corporation spends a lot of time in the spotlight, either giving tours of their state-of-the-art injection molding facility or talking about their unique and productive employee-owned company. Most recently, HPC’s President, Tim Bayer, was interviewed by the Manufacturers Association for Plastics Processors. In the interview, Bayer answered not only questions about his company and its relationship with MAPP, but also about his own personal preferences and views.

Hansen Plastics Corporation is dedicated to offering fast, efficient, and high-quality injection molded plastic products and services to a very diverse list of clients. Through unique processes allowing their customers to determine how Hansen Plastics Corporation can be of value and the incredibly beneficial Value Stream Process that has helped the company expand its services into 26 different industries in numerous markets, they are one of the nation’s largest and most recognized facilities.

The Manufacturer’s Association for Plastics Processors, or MAPP, is managed by a variety of industry leaders and was created to help plastics manufacturers and process remain competitive in a highly influential and ever-changing industry. MAPP regularly meets with those who work every day in the plastics industry to not only keep up with new trends, but also to gather relevant data to help its members set new trends.

In his MAPP interview, Bayer revealed that he became interested in plastics during a hands-on program at ISU and appreciates his role as President of the Hansen Plastics Corporation due to the interaction and coaching he provides almost daily. His proudest moment was when the company was chosen as a tour site for the Association for Manufacturing Excellence, or AME, and he is well-known among his colleagues for pushing ideas and data forward while always remaining reasonable and fair.

Bayer sees success as recognition; each employee at HPC is also part owner, and when employees are recognized by their peers and colleagues, this is the best form of success. He says MAPP networking is one of the biggest benefits the organization has to offer, and the group’s amazing sense of selflessness creates some of the most valuable interactions in the industry.

Bayer is currently reading The Servant, Everybody Matters, and Be Our Guest, and he says giving speeches and presentations is not his strongest talent, but truly believes stepping outside your comfort zone is important for growth and success.
