The presses are running again in Jasper Indiana!

For seventy-seven years this plant has mixed its own rubber and molded it into parts that hold up. New ownership, the same trade, the same people. Jasper Rubber Products is back in production.

A new chapter written by an old hand

In July 2026, Jasper Rubber Products was purchased by the Skinner family, owners of Press-Seal Corporation of Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Press-Seal is a three-generation, family-owned rubber manufacturer that has been making engineered sealing products since 1959. This is not a financial owner. It is a rubber company buying a rubber company, run by people who came up through the mixing room and the press line.

That matters for what comes next. The plant’s equipment, its compound library, its tooling and — most importantly — its workforce are being brought back, not broken up. Customers who moved tooling out during the shutdown are welcome back, and the door is open to new work.

What we do

Five core processes under one roof, supported by rubber we compound ourselves.

Lathe cut gaskets

High-volume precision seals and rings for filtration, fluid power and industrial assemblies.

Rubber injection molding

Tight-tolerance molded parts, including insert and over-molding on shuttle-table presses.

Valve gate injection molding

Controlled gating for clean cosmetics, balanced fill and minimal secondary work.

Rubber compression molding

Large-tonnage and multi-station capacity for high-cavitation, high-volume parts.

Plastic injection molding

Standard and underhood-rated thermoplastics molded in-house, alongside the rubber that mates to them.

Captive compounding

We mix our own rubber for our own parts — control over cost, consistency and lead time.
