History

Springfield Plastics, Inc. was started in 1978 by a group of local investors headed by Roy Baker, Wayne Baker, and Glen Brandt.

Wayne was placed in charge of day-to-day operations. Wayne—with a background in agricultural drainage—insisted that the company produce products that would stand up to the demanding farm drainage market. His experience from the early days of plastic drainage pipe also reinforced that the products be consistent. Roy and Glen also assisted in the management of the new company. CPA Steve Baker, Wayne's son, was brought in to handle the finances for the company.

Wayne retired in 1997 and Steve took over the operations. The company has become a leading Midwest manufacturer of corrugated plastic drainage pipe. In 2000, the company became the only U.S. manufacturer certified as using only 100% virgin material. Springfield Plastics proudly offers plastic pipe solutions for the agricultural, residential, commercial, and highway markets.
