Is Timco a Good Fit for Your Business?
Timco Rubber is a supplier of custom rubber and plastic parts. We partner with businesses to help them find and invest in the right part solutions for their businesses. However, that doesn’t always mean that we’re the right supplier for their needs.
Timco has provided customers with quality parts and service since 1956, and part of that service lies in being transparent about which customers can benefit from us the most. Keep reading to see if Timco is a good fit for your business.
Which Businesses Are a Good Fit for Our Services?
Timco works with a wide range of businesses ranging from Fortune 500 companies to small enterprises with fewer than 20 people. Our capabilities and experience make us a great fit for some types of businesses, and less ideal for others.
Good Fits:
- You are a manufacturer or some other type of business that regularly uses or purchases custom rubber and plastic components.
- Your business needs larger quantities of custom parts that are manufactured via multiple processes, including die cutting, extrusion, and lathe cutting.
- You have a detailed drawing that provides material requirements and specifications on the component.
- You’re seeking an ongoing relationship with a supplier that can provide recurring orders, even if they have varying part needs over time.
Bad Fits:
- You need to make a small, one-time order or only require standard, off-the-shelf parts.
- Your typical order size amounts to less than $1,000 or you only need smaller, one-off orders.
- You are a hobbyist or inventor who is in the initial stages of designing and developing parts.
- You need a design house who can help you develop your part and create a drawing with specifications.
What are Your Pain Points?
Another great way to determine if Timco is a good fit for your business is to see if we can address some of your most notable challenges. We often find that new customers face a few common pain points that we aim to solve through our capabilities and customer service.
You manage, use, or purchase parts from multiple suppliers with different capabilities.
Our core business is to be a single-source solution for our customers’ part needs. We serve a diverse customer base across a wide range of markets and have the capabilities and value-added services needed to streamline your part ordering process.
Your current supplier isn’t flexible and won’t adjust their own processes to fit yours.
Our goal is to be your supply partner, not just another vendor. We work with you to adapt to your unique systems and processes rather than force you to conform to ours.
You need more comprehensive part solutions for your custom needs.
Timco excels at coming to customers with ideas and solutions that address the specifications of their unique application. We provide a wide range of solutions and supply our customers with parts that meet their exact specifications, including offering guidance based on our expertise and experience in the custom rubber and plastic space.
You want to talk to real, live people.
Customers who have ongoing solutions that are a little more complex deserve adaptable, flexible partners who can provide them with prompt, personal attention. We offer hands-on, personal service with a commitment to provide complete customer satisfaction.
You struggle with holding inventory.
Timco supports our partners by giving them flexible inventory options. We are willing to work with customers on custom inventory solutions, including warehousing and just-in-time delivery.
