Laramie, WY (USA) – IDES - One Source. Plastics Data., today announced a new, complimentary sourcing service for buyers to efficiently connect with resin suppliers and distributors. Click here

IDES is pleased to announce a new, complimentary Sourcing service with a human touch. Rather than purchasing large quantities of resin online, we offer a more personalized service that efficiently connects buyers with distributors and resin suppliers who can supply the material or a lower cost alternative.

Buyers looking for a specific material can contact IDES with the desired product name and grade. A representative with IDES will connect the buyer with distributors or suppliers who can supply the material or a lower cost alternative.

On a daily basis, IDES communicates with material suppliers for data inquisitions. Over time, they have established relationships with key contacts at most supplier companies. By searching their plastics database, IDES representatives can quickly locate suppliers and distributors for requested products, and through their internal CRM system, call on the key contacts that get in touch directly with the buyers.

"We've learned that purchasers rely heavily on trust and human contact when purchasing products in volume. They also require an efficient way to learn where to buy material," said Mike Kmetz, IDES President. "Rather than searching directories, the Internet or even calling corporate 800 numbers, they can simply contact us to speak with one of our representatives. We think of our new sourcing service as 'the missing link' in the resin product life-cycle that connects buyers and suppliers with the confidence of 'human touch'."
