Over the past four years, I’ve become increasingly dismayed that there were no good resources for information about tubing. All of the information seems to be posted by companies trying to sell their products. The goal of this blog is to address this. My mission here is to present helpful information about plastic tubing to consumers, engineers and product developers.
In the interest of full disclosure, I need to tell you that I work for one of those companies selling tubing. I manage the marketing for Freelin-Wade (www.freelin-wade.com). Of course I’d love for you to buy our tubing but that is not what this is about. In fact, on this site, expect plenty of information and recommendations about tubing from all manufacturers including NewAge Industries (www.newageindustries.com), Hudson Extrusions (www.hudsonextrusions.com) and everyone else in the business. In fact, I encourage representatives from all tubing manufacturers to participate in this forum.
By the way, my name is Ron Miller and I am the moderator of this site. I’ve been in marketing for twenty years but plastic tubing only since 1996. Before that, I was involved in several Internet ventures while working for big companies. The most notable projects that I worked on became Mapquest and SuperPages.
