Sacramento, CA – DCA Partners (“DCA”) is pleased to announce that Interstate Advanced Materials, a nationwide wholesale distributor of plastics and composite materials, has been acquired by Curbell Plastics, Inc., a leading U.S. supplier of plastic sheet, rod, tube, and high-performance materials. This strategic acquisition expands Curbell’s geographic footprint, particularly in the western United States, and strengthens its ability to serve customers across a broader range of industries.
Founded over four decades ago, Interstate Advanced Materials built its reputation on reliable supply, responsive customer support, and deep regional market knowledge. As a family-oriented business, Interstate sought a long-term strategic partner that shared its values and commitment to customers and employees.
“Curbell is the right long-term owner for Interstate,” said Cole Klokkevold, CEO of Interstate Advanced Materials. “They share our values as a family-owned business and our commitment to taking care of customers and employees. I am confident our team and our customers are in good hands for the future, and we are excited to offer our customers the combined strengths of both organizations.”
“This transaction brings together two of the most respected independent distributors in performance plastics and composite materials under one national platform,” said Lars Bechert, who led the transaction on behalf of DCA. “Curbell is the ideal steward to carry the Klokkevold family’s legacy forward, while providing Interstate’s customers and employees an expanded footprint for continued growth.”
