Firestone has a long-standing tradition of making the best rubber products on the planet, and has actually been in existence since 1900, when Harvey S. Firestone began manufacturing tires, which Firestone is still most famous for today. That being said, the company manufactures a countless number of other rubber and fiber-based products for industrial and automotive applications, all of which carry the same commitment to quality that Harvey instilled in his company more than a century ago.
