- Ecoplastic Corporation is a South Korea-based automotive component manufacturer that specializes in the engineering, manufacturing, and distribution of plastic interior and exterior parts and injection molds for the global automotive industry. Founded in 1984 as Apollo Industries Co., Ltd. and headquartered in Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea, the company operates as a key member of the SECO Group and serves as a Tier-1 supplier primarily to Hyundai Motor Company and Kia Corporation. Ecoplastic Corporation organizes its operations across specialized product lines, offering automotive exterior components, including front and rear bumper assemblies, radiator grilles, tailgate garnishes, wheel covers, roof racks, cowl covers, and back panels; automotive interior systems, including instrument panels, center consoles, main crash pads, door trims, and pillar garnishes; and precision tooling solutions, including injection molds for large bumper systems, automotive lighting housings, engine parts, and fuel tank components. The company operates manufacturing, research, and distribution facilities across South Korea and maintains international operations to support global original equipment manufacturers. In recent strategic developments, Ecoplastic Corporation has accelerated its global expansion and transition toward electric vehicle component manufacturing by investing over 205 million USD to establish a large-scale manufacturing plant in Bulloch County, Georgia, operated through its subsidiary Ecoplastic America Corp. This facility produces specialized lightweight interior and exterior plastic modules and assemblies directly supporting the Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America. Additionally, the company has expanded its regional logistics and warehousing footprint in North America, integrated acquired manufacturing subsidiaries including Jinwon Co., Ltd. and AIA Co., Ltd. to bolster mold fabrication and assembly capabilities, and expanded research and development initiatives into eco-friendly, high-durability, and lightweight composite materials for next-generation electric and hybrid vehicle platforms.
