Today’s bright new technologies are bringing the world together in such innovative ways. With just a click, it is possible to share thoughts with millions of minds—almost instantaneously.
As traditional work methods give way to more customized solutions, the need to keep our individual lives more organized is growing. Alliance Rubber Company manufactures 2,200 products and markets them in 34 countries all to help individuals and work places meet their building, organizational, and promotional needs. The need for organization was something our Dad, William Spencer, understood. It fueled his vision for the company, founded in 1923 in Alliance, Ohio. We are now celebrating a third generation of family ownership, with more than 150-team members— who are an integral part of our continuing success. Their attitude toward quality and the passion they bring in producing a quality product distinguishes the brand. 62% of the Alliance Rubber Company team has been with the company for over five years and they help us make some of the world’s best rubber band products at our manufacturing facility in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
For nearly a century, Alliance Rubber Company has been organizing the world in fun, affordable ways. Dedicated to “Holding Your World Together” by providing the best organizational tools at the best value, all the reasons Alliance Rubber Company remains a respected leader in manufacturing resonate right here:
VARIETY
We started with just a few rubber bands. Now, Alliance Rubber Company offers over 2,000 sku’s of packaging, Ad Bands®, the world’s first four-color imprinted FotoFlex Bands™, Cable Wrapz ®, Gear Strapz®, waterproof UPC-imprinted ProTape® and mailing/shipping supplies.
WOSB-Woman Owned Small Business
Helping women advance in the boardroom and beyond, our WBENC—Women’s Business Enterprise National Council Certification helps dealers provide products for both U.S. government set-asides and Fortune 500 diversity purchases.
INNOVATION
We were recently honored by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s NIST—National Institute of Standards and Technology—as one of two U.S. companies to win the Excellence in Innovation Award. Take a look at our history section to see our new products, and know we are committed to keeping you a market leader rather than a follower.
TRUST AND RELIABILITY
Since 1923, we’ve grown into a packaging leader, selling to dealers in 34 countries.
GREEN
Unlike many packaging items, rubber bands are reusable and cut down on the need for excessive packaging. If every person in the world reduced their garbage by as little as 10%, the results could save 100 pounds of carbon dioxide per person annually. In addition, most of our rubber bands are made from latex, a rapidly renewable resource.
ERGONOMICALLY CORRECT BANDS
Our soft stretch reduces stress, which leads to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and costly workers’ compensation claims. As our bands’ elongation is further than most other bands, the consumer can see cost savings by using a smaller size and increasing their count per pound.
DIVERSE, INTERESTING PEOPLE COMMITTED TO YOUR SUCCESS
Small companies have always been known for their entrepreneurial spirit, and Alliance is no exception. Wherever you are in this vast world, you’ll find us to be helpful, friendly people, dedicated to helping you find a solution.
We’re committed to “holding your world together.” Every single day we work, we’ll keep dreaming up new products to help organize your life at work, school, home, or play. We’re not interested in being your biggest supplier—we just want to be your favorite. A manufacturing organization with a passion for quality that spans 90 years, you can count on Alliance Rubber Company for all your organizational needs.
