About J.J. Short Associates, Inc.
Our company was founded by John, Sr. and his wife Mary Ann
Short in 1977, as a manufacturer of custom rubber products.
Mr. Short was a graduate of Hobart College majoring in
Chemistry and Math. He learned the rubber trade while working
for Garlock, Inc. and as a partner in Chamberlin Rubber
Company, where he was primarily responsible for developing
that company's molded-rubber division. The company's initial
focus was to produce specialty molded rubber products, rubber
covered rolls and rubber-to-metal and rubber-to-plastic parts
for the film processing and graphic arts industries. Mr. Short
along with engineers at Eastman Kodak Company, perfected the
manufacturing methodology of molding the "soft-touch" spool
tire covering the film-bearing portion of processing rollers
that facilitate the processing of films with little or no
process-attributable damage. With a solid foundation of loyal
customers, the Shorts along with a family of hardworking
co-workers grew the company throughout the last three decades.
Today we continue in the production of rubber components
and products for industries such as communication systems,
packaging, electronics manufacturing services (EMS), graphic
art and print equipment, furniture manufacturing, food
processing, beverage, and medical equipment to name a few.
