Henrich Rubber Company started selling rubber bands for the bundling of wood moulding in 1989. Since wood moulding bundles can be up to 16 feet in length, we had to develop a very strong band that could hold lumber together for at least one year.

The next challenge we faced was the need for a rubber band application machine capable of applying at least 10 bands per minute. This equipment was also developed and put into operation. The moulding companies required the assurance that the Henrich rubber band would not leave any chemical residue or band color on the wood which could prevent the wood from being painted or stained. As a result, we spent the necessary funds in research and development to create just the right formula specifically for this application. For over 15 years this formula has provided rubber bands that have never stained the wood they bundled and have held for one full year.

In 1996, we introduced the Hinge Bumper. These bands are specifically designed to protect pre-hung wooden doors from hinge damage during shipment.
