R&R Products,
Inc., is the leading manufacturer of replacement parts for the
commercial golf and turf industry. With over 275 employees, we
are a family owned and operated corporation. Thomas Rogers, President & CEO;
Don Rogers, Vice President & COO; Carol Hudson, Vice President
of Sales; and Brian Larson, Vice President & CFO.
Our company was founded by Roy H. Rogers in 1971 and President unitl
he passed away in August of 2003. Roy was extremely proud of
R&R
as he worked with all three of his children Carol, Tom and Don and
his
grandson
Brian. He enjoyed every day with the close family business which has
become the world's leading manufacturer of golf and turf replacement
parts.
Roy Rogers was formerly President
and founder of Rogers Manufacturing Company, a manufacturer of patented
turf sweepers and aerators. Rogers Manufacturing was sold to Jacobsen
Manufacturing Company, a larger commercial mower manufacturer, in 1968.
Roy Rogers retired until 1971 when he decided there was a great
need
for a quality replacement parts manufacturer in the commercial turf
industry. Up to this time, there had been several replacement parts
companies in this industry that had lacked the control of manufacturing
processes necessary to produce a quality product, and therefore, they
were not well accepted in the turf industry. Roy Rogers felt that in
order to compete with the large original equipment manufacturers he
would have to have complete control of all facets of the manufacturing
processes, especially heat treating. Therefore, he built a factory
and purchased equipment capable of manufacturing the best replacement
parts available.
The control we have over our line of replacement parts is unequalled
in our industry, as we have our own computerized numeric controlled lathes
and mills for precision machining, punch presses, state-of-the-art laser
cutting center as well as five heat treating systems for complete control
of the temper on all of our blades. In all, our modern manufacturing
and automated warehousing facilities encompass over 300,000 square feet.
Our line of replacement parts, golf course accessories, irrigation, safety
and tools has grown from less than a hundred in 1971 to over a thousand
in 1985 to over 18,000 parts today. We have become the leader in our
industry in replacement parts and are committed to continue to grow and
offer an ever expanding line of replacement parts and accessories.
Our sales philosophy has always been to offer a top quality product at
an attractive price and have the item in stock at all times for immediate
delivery. R&R Products offers the best warranty in the business, “All
R&R Reels, Bedknives and Tines are guaranteed against defects for
the life of the product” and R&R ships 98% of all orders the
same day the order is received.
