Most rubber companies don’t touch medical. We just spun up a division to do nothing else.

Launched FluidCore Medical this year. Focused on silicone — molded, extruded, reinforced hose, biopharma-grade compounding.

Why focus the whole division on this:

Medical silicone is the hardest and highest-value elastomer work in North America. ISO 13485. Biocompatibility. Cleanroom. Validated processes. Long qualification cycles.

The barriers to entry that frustrate new competitors are exactly what make the business defensible. Qualifications take two-plus years. OEMs don’t switch on price.

Biopharma single-use is growing fast. Med device OEMs are reshoring silicone components from Asia. Drug delivery, structural heart, and respiratory all need more silicone capacity, not less.

We didn’t add “medical” as a line item to a generic rubber catalog. We built a separate division, separate cert program, separate cleanroom investment — because medical customers can tell the difference.

If you’re a medical OEM trying to nearshore silicone components, send me a message.

If you’re a defense prime, your real supply chain risk isn’t China. It’s the 60-person rubber shop in Ohio that hasn’t recapitalized in 20 years.

We run Mil-Spec elastomer work. We see the tier-3 and tier-4 base up close.

Most domestic specialty elastomer capacity is owned by founders five to ten years from retirement. No succession plan. No engineering bench. No CapEx in a decade.

That is the actual vulnerability. Not just where the part is made — whether the company making it will still exist in 2032.

A defense industrial base is not a building. It is a balance sheet, a team, and a track record that says “we’ll still be here when you re-order seven years from now.”

Good-West is investing into elastomer manufacturing because someone has to. The country won’t have a domestic specialty rubber base if private operators don’t put real capital behind it.

If you’re sourcing for a prime and you’re worried about your bottom-tier suppliers — let’s talk.

Everyone’s talking about reshoring. Almost no one is doing it well.

We run rubber and silicone manufacturing in Rancho Cucamonga, Tijuana, and Tecate.

The Mexico plants are not a labor arbitrage play. They are a resilience play.

The OEMs that survive the next decade won’t choose between “US” and “Mexico.” They will need both — capacity close to design, capacity close to assembly, and redundancy if one side goes down.

Tariffs made this urgent. Customer behavior turned it from “nice to have” into table stakes.

We doubled our reshore wins in the last 12 months. Every one of them needed both shores to work.

Reshoring is not a slogan. It is a CapEx plan, a workforce plan, and a customer-by-customer rebuild.

If your supplier is selling you reshoring without telling you which line items got new tooling, new validation, and new throughput targets — they’re selling you a press release, not a supply chain.

Good days in leadership aren’t always flashy — they’re foundational.
Today was spent deep in the work: reviewing performance at the part and customer level, challenging assumptions, and making sure our decisions are grounded in real data — not anecdotes. This is where discipline matters most: understanding costs, pricing, ex*****on, and accountability across the organization.
Progress doesn’t come from dashboards alone. It comes from teams willing to look closely at the numbers, ask hard questions, and act decisively when something doesn’t line up. That’s how you protect margins, serve customers well, and build a business that scales the right way.
Grateful for teams who lean into that level of rigor every day. The details matter — and so does the mindset behind them.
