Valley Plastics Company was founded in 1978 as an independently owned plastics product development and plastics
sheet, rod, and tube manufacturing company. Systems Alternatives developed and patented the benchmark technology-Plexiglas
Protective Computer Covers. Kuebler made the prototype after 6 years of employment at Valley Plastics Company. The first
commercial dustproof computer covers technology were offered in 1991. Implementation of the technology removed the threat
of dust damages in a number of industries. Many firms copied the design like Envirosafe Technologies, where firms like Clean-air
capitalized on an injection molded clear acrylic box which has a Design Patent (no claims). Both competitors lack the broadest
patent protections that were established in the claims portions of 5163870. However, the hinged doors on the Dustshield and
Cleanaire plastic products are where novelty rests if any. Not much in our opinion
In 1997 patent rights
were sold in an agreement that included global licensing rights to Kuebler & Company. That license agreement gave
Kuebler & Company the right to manufacture 5163870 the computer covers. Additionally,
rights were sold to Thompson Plastics in 2006 as all parties agreed that friendly competition would enhance business. Inquiries
with regard to potential development of new products are invited as well as prospective buyers of computer covers.
The strong research and service focus at Thompson Plastic And Chemical has facilitated evolving from the benchmark
Computer Cover technology to a new generation of Thermoelectric cooled enclosures ( T-Primusipar)
and wine cooler or automotive 12V cooler technologies and services. The current family of CONVENTIONAL and HIGHTECH
computer covers product offerings is detailed under the Services and Product Sections. Valley Plastics TM services are
available broadly through leading dealers and producers throughout the industry. Plastics fabrication services are available
on a quote basis. The Company has created new Plexiglas plastics products and delivered added value throughout the US and
Canada.
