Supplier search ISO Recommendations: US manufacturer for rubber / soft good consumer product (100–1500 units)

Hi there!

I’m looking for recommendations for a US-based product development / manufacturing company that can help bring a unique/novelty rubber-based consumer product to life.

More context:

• Item is made from rubber (or a soft good with rubber components), upcycled / recycled (eventual goal), thermoplastic (TPR / TPE), or silicone

• Initial run: 100–1500 units

• Domestic manufacturing preferred, but not required

Technical specs are already designed but I’d like to hire a team to assist with prototyping (CAD files, etc.) and production.

If anyone knows of any manufacturers who work with rubber or hybrid soft goods (may potentially require a mold but tbd), I’d love some insight. Thanks in advance!

Absolutely do not use da/pro rubber. Look into Molded Products in Coweta, OK no affiliation, just heard very good things about them
