For over 75 years and through 4
generations our family, employees and representatives have worked to build a
solid reputation of trust and customer satisfaction. POBCO's successes are
derived from the outstanding contributions of our people and customers; past and present and
the ingenuity and variety of POBCO products; historic and modern.
POBCO
was founded in 1929 by George Johnson. Historically known as Paramount Oilless
Bearing Co., lnc., our original purpose was to provide Wood Bearings &
Parts used on textile machines in the once thriving New England
textile industry. (See POBCO Web article www.pobcoplastics.com
"The Evolution of Conveyor
Components").
Today our Lube-Filled Hardwood products are used in a variety of industries including the
Agriculture, Material Handling and Entertainment markets. Many of these
applications are harsh, dirty and wet where conventional metal or plastic
bearings have failed. Self-lubricating Wood Wear Strip was developed by
George's son Russell in the early 1960's and was first used on Meyer Labeling
Machines with great success.
In the early 1980's 3rd generation POBCO
owners introduced Plastics and a growing variety
of Standard & Custom Conveyor Components &
Friction-Reducing products. Today we enjoy an expanding domestic and
international customer base in many industries including the food, bottling,
packaging and conveying markets. POBCO is dedicated to finding product
solutions for our customers which may involve making custom components from
over 25 Bearing-Grade Plastics.
As a 4th generation family business we
will continue to strive for complete customer satisfaction. Service to you and
our community is a POBCO priority. Thank you for your interest and business and
for our mutual benefit to the world we serve.
