The Perfect Mix of Customer Service and Innovation

About Us

Our name is Elite because it defines the ethos of who we are as a company: relentlessly seeking to bring together the best in technology, innovation, agility, operations, and customer service to help our customers achieve elite status in their own businesses.

We Begin and End with Elite Customer Service

It’s how we started as a company, and it’s been the source of every success since.

Everything that sets us apart at Elite, from the state-of-the-art R&D facility for advanced formulations and testing to the deep industry expertise of our engineers and chemists to our utilization of Japanese project management methodologies, is wrapped around the principle of providing the absolute best to you, our customer. Accomplishing that relies entirely on how well we listen and collaborate with you to find the solution that addresses every single one of your needs and concerns.

At Elite, we take customer service to the next level. Our differentiated approach to developing and sustaining customer relationships is rooted in the Japanese concept of omotenashi, “the spirit of selfless hospitality, anticipating needs without having to be asked.” We engage with each customer by listening to their needs and issues, tailoring our solutions to meet their exact formulations, maintaining communication throughout the development process, and delivering the final product to meet their expectations. The Elite team is available to support and answer questions and resolve any customer issues in a timely manner.

An Elite History

Elite Advanced Polymers has been at the forefront of application-driven advanced compounding for over 20 years, since its founding in 2001. Throughout that time our customer relationships have driven us forward, inspiring our innovation and technology advancements. We have a strong heritage of R&D and application-driven advanced custom compounding. Our core competencies have always been listening to the customer and developing custom specialty compounds that fit their specific needs. If you can dream it, we can mix it.

Our Future

Elite’s recent acquisition by DestinHaus Capital has infused the business with innovation expertise, additional working capital, and best in class Japanese manufacturing and quality control practices. Elite now has a bolder growth vision. The business is investing in upgrading its equipment and capabilities to better serve its existing customers and advance into formulating and mixing new materials of the future, for the life sciences and consumer technology industries. We are excited to expand Elite capabilities into new industry segments. Elite is well positioned for its next phase of rapid growth.

Our Vision

We aspire to be the industry’s most trusted partner for advanced materials compounding.

Mixing Capabilities

At Elite Advance Polymers, custom specialty mixing is our core competency. We strive to have a varying degree of mixing sizes to afford our customers and industry the needs of servicing their business quickly and efficiently. Therefore, Elite Advanced Polymers has expanded their mixing capacity by adding to the existing three production mixing lines. These mixing lines handle batch sizes from roughly 100 lbs. to 250 lbs. depending on the polymer type, specific gravity, hardness, and color. The additional commissioned 5L mixer, the fourth commercial mixer, added increases the capabilities significantly with 10 - 15 lbs. batches. The batch size and mixing versatility is unmatched in the industry with customer’s procurement needs identified.
