Mid-Century Beginnings

1950’s

Charles “Chuck” Bruckman started working for a company, Midwest Molding, as an engineer.

1961

Chuck left Midwest Molding and started Bruckman Rubber Co. “If those guys at Midwest Molding could make a living, then I could do very well on my own if ran properly.” Bill Woods became the first employee. All presses were leased from Kerrco.

1962

In early 1962, Bruckman Rubber Co. began leasing space in the Kerrco building. By the middle of 1962, Bruckman Rubber Co. moved to its current location at 101 South St Joseph Ave, Hastings, NE.

1963

Much to the benefit of Bruckman Rubber Co., Midwest Molding went out of business. This allowed the transfer of equipment and many customers.

Recent Years

Since then, Bruckman Rubber Co. has continued to grow, expanding into three surrounding buildings to keep up with its manufacturing demands. We supply rubber parts to all corners of the United States and across the globe.
