About Tastic Plastics
Why We are Here
Tastic Plastics were developed with painstaking research to find formulations and form factors (extrusion shapes) that would be easy for installers, handyman, and DIY users to work with. We bought every plastic sample on Amazon, deconstructed plastic containers and their lids, met with many plastics engineers, tried different shapes and refined our requirements: Easily drilled or cut without cracking, thin yet durable, immune to fatigue or yellowing, flame-proof, good memory (snaps back into shape), flexibility and with thermoplasticity at manageable temperatures.
Initially developed for office wiring as cable troughs, overhead wire trusses, under-desk cable management and AV system installer-customizable wall mounts, and custom covers. Our corporate low-voltage contracting business is no more, happily retired. We have found so many good uses for this plastic that we figured other people could benefit from it, so we opened this business to make it available.
It’s like no other plastic you can buy, which is why we invented it because we couldn’t buy something off the shelf.
Patented Design
Besides the thermoplastic properties, the shapes themselves offer unique features, and their thickness imparts just the right amount of flexibility and toughness.
They work separately or together, in sections or in pieces, cut, bent, glued and screwed to your desire. It has strength and pliability that make it easy to work with.
Think of the base as a plank, lightweight lumber, blank until you make it into something.
The cover is also used as a trough or raceway, can be folded into a boxy container, or easily cut and molded into custom shapes with the application of heat.
We retail Tastic Plastics preconfigured for landscaping drainage, or as a kit to cover HVAC lines, and other products we make from Tastic Plastics that lots of people can use. But clever people can do many things with it, customizing it for bespoke applications.
Why Choose Us?
You can’t find this stuff anywhere else.
It’s cheaper than manufactured plastic covers and trough systems that make you buy multiple connector parts. It’s easier to cut than acrylic or sheet ABS or even other hobbyist PVC sheets which we’ve tried. The particular shapes of our extrusions may have a curve or a corner you can make use of. It takes paint great, spray paint or latex.
It’s versatile as you can bend it and twist it to any angle, any shape. It’s light weight and durable, tough enough to screw stuff into. The cover can interlock with the base to create custom containers.
Courtesy Cutting
Tastic Cover is almost 4 inches high. We can cut the sides lower for you if you like, such as when used as a cable raceway cover over Tastic Base, and you don’t need 4 inches of room. You can cut it yourself with clippers, or a power saw, or score-and-fold, but we can do it for you when you order.
Please contact us with any questions, or to order bulk or off-menu. We want your experience with Tastic Plastics to be gratifying. And we don’t know what you are capable of doing with Tastic Plastic (think big).

Shipping
Some of our products are available in what we call a “4-foot” length, but is actually about 47-1/4 inches to fit inside a 4 foot box. This size box ships by weight, and this stuff is light.
Long items get charged “dimensional weight” by the shipping carrier, far in excess of the actual weight.
Our website calculates discounted shipping rates during checkout. We do not mark up shipping.
If you are ordering multiple items, sometimes they can be combined in fewer boxes to save shipping charges. Also sometimes the website shipping calculator is off when it prices the shipping of a bundle of items, and it’s cheaper to ship them separately. If any such economy is possible you will receive the credit and an email from customer service.
Returns
Tastic is intended to be cut, bent, drilled, or otherwise customized. If it is still intact we can take it back, but you pay the shipping to return it (This is not Amazon). Request an RMA number and provide your original order number.

FAQ
What color is Tastic Plastic?
When you first look at Tastic, the impression is WHITE, but it’s really a little cream colored. It’s so reflective that it takes on the hue of whatever light it is in. Different batches of Tastic may vary slightly, but mostly they match pretty good.
Tastic takes paint great, any kind of paint, spray paint, latex paint, or you can cover it with peel-and-stick.
Can it be recycled?
PVC has a recycle code of 3. The truth is most municipal recycling discards type-3 plastic into landfill. We can recycle it if you send it to us. It doesn’t go into our products but it gets used somewhere. Recycle it yourself by repurposing scraps for other applications.
Tastic is intended to be durable, not for disposable containers.
Is it food safe?
The polymers and elastomers in Tastic conform to FDA guidelines, free of BPA or phthalates, but Tastic is not certified as food safe. The truth is any plastic can leach into foods that are acidic or oily, given enough time. Wet foods are safe longer, and dry ingredients can be stored indefinitely.
Is it approved for risers and plenums?
Tastic Plastics have the highest fire resistance rating of UL 94 V-0, similar to non-metallic conduit, and can be used in similar ways in walls, in risers, and in data closets. No plastic is allowed in plenum air return spaces.
Ironically, you can use Tastic as an air duct.
