WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

Prater took a very complicated request for a problematic material of ours and made it simple. Everything was done as they described, on time, and communicated throughout the entire process. Prater re-processed our material making it saleable and, in the end, satisfying our end users.

Mike Kelley Regional Quality Manager/Plaster Manager

Prater has far exceeded our expectations in customer service and quality. I've been able to directly work with the engineers onsite to make sure we can provide the exact particle size needed to fit our specifications. We've used their toll services on two occasions and it made it possible for us to meet a tight deadline. Thank you for helping a small business grow!

Tom Marrero, PhD President
