About 25 minutes’ drive south of downtown Columbus on a light-industrial stretch of Frebis Avenue lies an unassuming 6,000 square-foot warehouse with a simple sign above the door that says “Marble Plastics.”
Here, tucked among other small workshops and neighboring discount retailers, materials mastermind Joseph Klatt and his team of six are turning hard-to-recycle plastics into durable, high-quality products used for construction, furniture and design.
