Rogers Corporation delivers high-performance materials that drive innovation to best serve our customers' needs. The value of our materials is brought to life by the expertise of the Rogers Preferred Converter Network.
Preferred Converters are more than just suppliers—they are an extension of Rogers, allowing our end-users to receive best-in-class quality, technical services, and customer experience.
When you work with a Rogers Corporation Preferred Converter, you are not only choosing a supplier but building a partnership. Here are the top six reasons why the Rogers Preferred Converter Network is valuable:
Rogers Corporation Preferred Converters are recognized leaders in their field. To achieve Preferred Converter status, these partners undergo a rigorous qualification process showcasing their industry leadership and expertise. Their acceptance into this program demonstrates that they understand the complexities of the market and have the resources and capabilities to meet your unique requirements. Whether you are an OEM or an end-user, you can trust that your products are in expert converting hands.
One key benefit of our Preferred Converter Network is the depth of knowledge our partners bring to the table. They have extensive experience converting a variety of materials, including PORON® and BISCO® solutions, using various die cutting techniques such as rotary, waterjet, and more. They can offer tailored solutions that fulfill your unique needs and prototypes. Converters can also offer suggestions on part design, layout, and processes to arrive at the most cost-effective version of the solution for your application.
Often, speed wins in manufacturing, and Rogers Corporation Preferred Converters understand that. Starting with materials shipped within 1-2 business days from the Rogers Corporation Solutions Center, they can offer fast access to materials and rapid prototyping capabilities, often reducing the time between design cycles before production and your lead times once production begins.
