Orcon

ORCON Corporation was founded in 1962 to meet the rigid requirements of the aerospace industry. Mr. Hollis Bascom formed ORCON Corporation in response to aerospace's demand for quality lightweight, non-woven reinforced materials, filling a critical void in the fabrics industry. The company name is derived from the types of products ORCON produces: ORiented CONtinuous strand. In 1970 the Carpet Seaming Tape Division was added to serve both the residential and commercial carpet industries. That year ORCON developed its first hot melt carpet seaming tape. ORCON Corporation is a substantial, mature company, and continues to support the needs of growing industries by developing new and innovative products that meet stringent quality requirements.
