ABOUT US

The first US patent for a polyethylene plastic portable restroom was issued in the 1960's to George Harding, who was a co-founder of PolyJohn Enterprises Corporation along with Ed Cooper and George Hiskes. Once these three founders got together they bought a plastic manufacturing company on an Indian reservation in Canada, named Rama Plastics, and this is where they first began manufacturing PolyJohn restrooms.

PolyJohn has been instrumental in developing the market for polyethylene toilets in the US and abroad. It was not until 1988 that PolyJohn had two manufacturing plants, Ontario, Canada and Whiting, Indiana, USA and a new distributor in Europe. This early distributor was based in England and soon became PolyJohn UK headed by Vernon Hills in 1992.

However PolyJohn UK was expanding around the globe with customers throughout Europe, Asia Pacific, South Africa and South America. PolyJohn UK was now becoming truly International and in 2001 had a new manufacturing plant in Brazil, South America, headed by Marcelo Massa. In 2002 PolyJohn UK became PolyJohn International Ltd. with it's head office in Wetherby, West Yorkshire, England.
