Hyde Industrial Blade Solutions makes industrial blades for a bevy of industries.

When founder Isaac Hyde started this company in 1875, he designed, manufactured, and sold knives to the rubber and leather industry. 

Now, 140 years later, the company he founded makes tool for a bunch of different industries. Hyde blades and knives cut everything from abrasives to Teflon.

Hyde’s customers are fairly diverse, but they all demand quality products that are both durable and perform under the harshest conditions. Companies also want a knife and blade manufacture that knows their business. 

That perfectly describes Hyde IBS.

After all, we just don’t manufacture knives and blades.  We provide solutions.

Below, we look at a few of the industries that Hyde has partnered with over the decades.

Converting

Converting takes large quantities of a product and then cuts, slits, trims, sheets or skives them into smaller quantities that can be sold to consumers.  The converting industry has relied on Hyde tools for decades.

Materials that are typically cut in the converting industry include abrasives, films, foams, foil, metal, paper, plastics, rubber, silicone, and tapes.

Food Processing

We’re not going to reveal how the sausage is made, but we will say that in order to make sausage, as well as most other foods, you need to cut it. That’s where the food processing industry comes in.

For help in chopping, coring, cutting, dicing, portioning, skinning, slicing, snipping, splitting, and trimming, the food processing industry looks to Hyde Industrial Blade Solutions.

Some of the foodstuff Hyde industrial blades cut include candies, fruits, grains, pork, poultry, red meat, and vegetables.

Textiles

Of course Hyde IBS makes industrial knives for textile industries. When Hyde was founded in 1875 in Massachusetts, the New England area and the textile industrial were one and the same.

Today, Hyde is a world-leading supplier of knives and blades used in brand name textile machines as well as tools used manually by craftspeople.

Some of the materials Hyde knives cut in the textile industry include carpet, fabric, fur, synthetic fibers, and upholstery

Tire & Rubber

Like we wrote earlier, Hyde has been making tools for the rubber industry since 1875. This has not only given Hyde a huge amount of experience designing knives and blades, but it has given us experience working in an industry that transforms frequently and dramatically.  

Types of rubber that are typically cut in this industry include belts, extruded rubber, mats, molded rubber, and of course, tires.

The types of cuts used in the rubber and tire industry include calendaring, cutting, cut-to-length, pin vent trimming, skiving, slabbing, and trimming.
