Introducing Accord Utility Systems — Our Dedicated Division for Utility Plastics
We’re excited to share a major development in the growth of Accord Plastics.
In April 2025, Accord Plastics acquired key assets, equipment, and intellectual property from R&M Plastics, a long-standing supplier of plastic utility components. This strategic acquisition includes R&M’s proven product lines for guy guards, ground wire molding, spiral wraps, and other protective solutions for utility and infrastructure applications.
To ensure a seamless transition and continued support for R&M’s customers, Accord has also welcomed several members of R&M’s experienced sales and technical team. Their knowledge and expertise will help maintain product continuity while enhancing our ability to serve the utility sector with greater efficiency and responsiveness.
“We recognized a unique opportunity to expand beyond our core custom extrusion services and step into a growing sector with proven demand,” said Matthew Ciancio, Vice President of Accord Plastics. “This acquisition positions us to support North America’s utility industry with reliable, Canadian-made plastic solutions.”
A New Chapter: Accord Utility Systems
To build on this legacy and create a focused identity for our utility product line, we’re proud to announce the launch of Accord Utility Systems — a dedicated division of Accord Plastics that will serve as the home for all utility-related offerings moving forward.
Accord Utility Systems will focus on:
- High-performance plastic protection products for utility poles and cabling
- Fast, reliable fulfillment for utility contractors and municipalities
- Continuous product improvement and technical support
- Custom solutions backed by over 35 years of manufacturing experience
As with all things Accord, this division will reflect our core values: precision, dependability, and partnership.
