“Kim is extremely qualified“, stated Roger Turner, President of the Blair Rubber Company. “She possesses a strong background in quality management and manufacturing. Blair’s business has been expanding rapidly particularly in replacement rubber linings and power plant flue gas desulphurization applications. We’ve added another calendaring line and relocated to a new facility to accommodate the growth. Expanding our management staff is the final step and Kim will be a valuable addition.”
Blair Rubber Company specializes in the design and manufacture of rubber for tank lining and belt splicing materials. Blair’s rubber linings are applied to the interior of storage tanks, rail tank cars, chemical and food processing equipment, and nuclear and wastewater treatment tanks to protect the metal or concrete from corrosion.
Many times, Blair’s products are used to protect tanks containing extremely hazardous chemicals; any failures in a rubber lining could lead to catastrophic consequences. Blair’s precise control of product quality from raw materials through manufacturing and shipment is essential to ensure that their products perform and protect.
