Time-To-Market Solution – ProtoFast Custom Rubber Parts – 
Molded And Manufactured To Color And Design Specification

Shakopee, Minnesota: Need production quality molded rubber parts quickly? Do you require fast turnaround in custom molded thermoset materials, silicones, fluoroelastomers, fluorosilicones, and liquid silicone rubber? What about specified colors for your parts?

Rubber Industries provides all of the above – your parts molded from print to production in just 10 working days. This ProtoFast service utilizes production grade tooling and dedicated molding equipment. Not the conventional prototype process, ProtoFast is a unique process that allows for faster and more accurate evaluations of the component design. Where time-to-market is crucial, bypassing a not always reliable prototype process can save weeks and even months otherwise lost with re-work and failed prototype designs.

All of this at production speed and with specified color, too. With product color increasingly important to brand enhancement, Rubber Industries includes this important feature in its ProtoFast service.

"In today's challenging markets, time-to-market is everything," reports Bruce Nelson, sales manager of Rubber Industries. "Using our ProtoFast service, designers can evaluate and test various rubber formulations simultaneously. We provide complete in-house elastomer testing facilities and formulation monitoring systems to assure materials meet customer quality requirements. These include specific industry performance requirements including contamination, UV and chemical resistance, plus other features such as insulation, bonding and sealing."

With a 45-year reputation for quality rubber molding, Rubber Industries has the experienced staff and full service ISO 9001:2000 certified facilities to handle virtually any rubber molding challenge, from product development and tooling design through manufacture, assembly and packaging.
