Resinoid Engineering Corporation

Resinoid was founded by Clarence A. Herbst Sr. (1900 to 1989). Mr. Herbst was a chemical engineer who designed and formulated phenolics in the early age of plastics; this creativity led to starting two small companies in the late 1920's and early 1930's. Resinoid grew out of these ventures and was incorporated in 1939. Molding of his plastics was added to the business almost immediately and as a result the company grew. Applications for these high tech phenolics were found in commutators and various custom moldings. This pattern of design to application continued into what Resinoid is today. The ownership and management of the company has continued within Mr. Herbst's family and the company in now in its third generation of ownership, lending consistency to proven principles throughout the years.
