"I established a relationship with Industrial Roll around 2009. I designed and built a wax coating system for a Flexible Packaging company in 2006 and was using an Industrial Roll competitor for my elastomer covered rolls which lasted on average only 2-3 months.
In 2008, I began to experience issues with the competitor’s quality and sought out another supplier for my elastomer covered rolls. I brought in Industrial Roll to review my process and the first roll that they supplied lasted almost 9 months with millions and millions of linear feet of Flexible packaging produced on it. I used Industrial Roll from that day forward. Industrial Roll’s product improved my production efficiencies by reducing my downtime along with reducing my maintenance cost. I thought so highly of Industrial Roll that in 2022 when I decided to look at new employment opportunities, I made the move and joined the Industrial Roll team!"
"I have been using Industrial Roll for over 30 years. They have the best products I have used. I tried several other companies none with the quality of Industrial Roll. Whenever we have a problem, they respond quickly with fast turnaround time. Very good family business to deal with."
"Will bend over backwards to get the rolls to us so that our pickle lines do not go down."

Godwin was an innovator of non-meltable, castable glue glycerin rollers with a focus on serving the boxboard and newspaper industries. John G. Streckfus led the company with brother-in-law Harry T Godwin, Jr. beginning in 1931 where they continued to serve the printer space until 1955 when they incorporated the business as Industrial Roll Company, Inc. and shifted its operational focus to more complex solutions for high speed coater lines and steel production. In 1970, grandson F. In 1970, grandson F. Michael Streckfus took over the business and innovated the original VINACAR formulation which has served as the basis for our current portfolio of materials. Today, Industrial Roll is a fifth generation family business that has expanded its service offering and looks forward to serving you.
