CEO Ken Bloom and Vice President of Sales Joe Hudson introduce the new Preferred Compounding branding at a staff meeting April 15 in Nashville.
New brand and evolutionary performance values introduced
As of April 19th, Preferred Rubber Compounding Corp. officially became Preferred Compounding.
Customers and vendors were briefed on the changes in separate webinars on the 19th.
CEO Ken Bloom said the new look communicates the continuing evolution of the company's
performance values,
summarized in the new tagline, "Preferred performs. You achieve."
"We've been focusing on providing custom compounding customers with high overall value for a long time," Bloom explained. "Delivering consistently high-quality compounds on schedule is just the beginning. Now we clearly explain how our focus can help customers do more."
In addition, Bloom said the new name reflects how people shortened the previous name. "Everyone calls us Preferred, and we're a compounder, so it's now Preferred Compounding."
