Since 1977, Urethane Innovators has worked with partners in the USA and around the world to design custom-molded polyurethane castings for use in material handling, industrial machinery, and consumer goods. Utilizing our in-house design and engineering, custom urethane formulations and blending, and CNC machining capabilities, we help our clients achieve better efficiency and cost savings through precisely engineered and cast components at competitive pricing, with an on-time delivery rate of 98.5%. We are Made in the USA…but used around the world.
Urethane Innovators specializes in offering premium urethane-covered bearings, feed wheels and rollers, urethane dunnage, and no-crush wheels to fulfill all your material handling requirements. Our no-crush wheels are designed to cushion sensitive items in production—glass and textiles, for example—as well as ensuring safe and effective handling during transportation. Covered bearings offer additional defense against dust and other foreign objects—extending the life of your machinery, while our feed rollers and wheels resist wear while cushioning your valuable parts in the industrial process. Urethane Innovators’ dunnage castings stabilize and secure your cargo during transportation, lowering the possibility of damage in transit, whether across the factory or around the world. Finally, we offer roller and wheel re-covering services, where we increase sustainability and reduce cost by stripping the damaged urethane from our customers’ parts and recasting to their specifications, while also repairing damage to shafts, bearings or keyways in our in-house CNC machine shop.
Urethane Innovators’ extensive selection of polyurethane products is complemented by our range of value-added services. From our engineering team that works with you to improve your products and suggest ways that we can save you money without sacrificing quality, to custom formulation and blending services that create exactly the right compound to meet your needs—including FDA-compliant blends—we have the experience and expertise to tackle your tough problems. Our in-house machine shop equipped with CNC and manual equipment can produce molds, cores, inserts and other components for your finished part. Utilizing our cutting-edge internal Instron testing platform, we can do mechanical qualifications (such as tensile strength, compression, bend, peel, and tear) and rapidly deliver precise UI Certificates of Performance.
