Mission Statement & Vision

Having a deep appreciation of where our company began provides us with a focused direction and vision of our future.


We’re proud to be the largest, privately held distributor in the Intermountain West – at the same time maintaining competitive prices and excellent customer service. We accomplish this by hiring only the industry’s most experienced professionals, who also just happen to be good people who like to make a difference.


Our humble beginnings trace back to 1916, when Rudolph Orlob founded the Mountain States Rubber Company. Mountain States Rubber Company provided the mining industry with much-needed products such as packing, industrial tires and conveyor belts. Ten years later, amidst a booming Utah economy, Mr. Orlob started Industrial Supply to better serve a wide range of emerging industries.


Today, Rudolph Orlob’s family still owns and manages Industrial Supply, and is continually adapting the company to meet your needs. We currently offer over 40,000 products to the construction, aerospace and defense, utilities, government, electronic, mining and manufacturing industries. We’re proud to be affiliated with leading industrial vendors such as 3M, Kimberly Clark and Dewalt, companies that have been in business for decades and can bring literally a lifetime of knowledge and product experience to you.
