Customer Needs Lead to Acquisition for Holz Rubber Company



Lodi, CA – Holz Rubber Company, a recognized leader in rubber manufacturing and molding solutions, announced today that it has acquired Caliber Industries, as well as assets from Canadian-based Airboss’ Industrial Division. Along with the additional technical expertise and staff, these acquisitions include both injection and compression molding presses along with other essential equipment necessary to better meet customer needs.



“We pride ourselves on offering our customers technical solutions, outstanding customer service and the highest quality products,” said Dave Smith, President of Holz Rubber. “These acquisitions were a logical step in our desire to better serve our customers and build our technical bench strength for the future.”



This strategic move allows Holz to expand its custom molding division by increasing capabilities, capacities, and delivery speed.
