Foam Fabricators Inc.




When Polyfoam sold out its plants to Tuscarora, I opted to go to work for another company that was more stable. I chose to work for Foam Fabricators, http://www.foamfabricatorsinc.com/ they chose to put me in another new plant setup situation. Mark Sabolcik was Vice President over the region I went o work in; he was definitely a pleasure to work with over the years I was there. I started out in a plant in Minooka Ill. with the knowledge that we were going to relocate all the equipment to a new location in Fort Madison Iowa soon. All the details were not finalized as of yet so We had to keep the existing plant running for some time without doing a lot of upgrades to the facility at this time. Then the time came to make the move and it was a Fun yet challenging period, keeping customers supplied while taking machinery from one plant refurbishing it as needed and then installing it in the new plant. There was also a lot of new equipment bought and assembled in the new plant we had a large deal of success, using many people from other plants in the company and working as a tight knit team. I really enjoyed working with Foam Fabricators and all the people there and again chose to move to another plant that was in need of strong leadership for a large expansion, when I went to the existing Jefferson Georgia plant.
