Sandhill Plastics takes pride in the fact that ALL products manufactured here are from 100% recycled HPDE material.
Whether it be from post consumer or post industrial, we do our part to make sure your product is 100% green!
There are no fillers, holes, or hollow insides, every sheet is SOLID HDPE, ranging from 1/16″ thick to 5/8″ thick.
Standard colors are black or white, however, color concentrate can be added to the white to produce many colors.
HDPE can come from bottles, milk jugs, caps, irrigation pipe, ariation pipe, shotgun shells, bags, packaging and lumber.
Do you part today and recycle in your hometown to prevent the landfill from filling up. Who knows, maybe your recyclables will make it to our production line and you will have the chance to purchase the products we sell and complete the loop of recycling.
Let’s make a difference today!
Oh the love! Plenty of it going around here!

It’s been very busy at Sandhill Plastics this summer! We are greatful for the business and look forward to the continued partnerships!
However, with the business comes lead times, and we are running at about 2 weeks out with larger orders.
Please take this into consideration when placing your order for your project.
Thanks!
We would like to thank Chris Rose Welding for becoming partners with us in the Month of May! Chris was a VERY easy gentleman to work with, was patient while we made his special order and placed another order already after receiving the first!
Chris is from the Provo, Utah area and is building hockey and lacrosse arenas with our plastic sheets.
We thank you for the business and look forward to continued partnership!
Hope everyone has a terrific Memorial Day weekend!

Over the last decade, we have seen a rise in the amount of folks looking to buy recycled products, plastic sheets included.
Sandhill Plastics does manufacture 100% recycled sheets, and although we aren’t here to “SAVE THE WORLD”, we are definitely here to do our part in helping and providing recycled materials for consumers.
The growing interest does make the cost of raw materials increase and therefor prices will be adjusted to accommodate such a trend. Most of the interest seen for recycled goods is primarily because of cost, not to save the environment. Some companies get a kick back in government grants for using recycled content, such as plastic containers, etc.
A lot of companies or consumers have a hard time paying premium amounts for recycled goods, when they see the BRAND NEW goods, or virgin as a better deal. Understandable, but the product is not compromised in any way and does save the Earth while using it over a virgin material.
HDPE uses less energy and emits fewer greenhouse gas emissions, which hopefully will score some points with those concerned about it. Plus will keep the cost somewhat down because energy cost aren’t near as high to produce product.
