Profile: Goodrich History Here you will find a few highlights of our proud 130-year history. Dr. Benjamin Franklin Goodrich establishes the first rubber company west of the Allegheny Mountains, leading to Akron, Ohio, becoming the Rubber Capital of the World. BFGoodrich establishes one of the first research labs in the United States. BFGoodrich scientist Dr. Waldo Semon plasticizes polyvinyl chloride (PVC) giving birth to the multi-billion-dollar worldwide vinyl industry. Charles Lindbergh electrifies the world when he flies nonstop from New York to Paris. His plane is equipped with Goodrich airplane tires. After years of intensive research, BFGoodrich scientists discover a way to produce synthetic rubber. This breakthrough helps the United States win World War II, as the nation's supply of natural rubber was cut off. BFGoodrich revolutionizes the tire industry by inventing the tubeless tire. America's first astronauts come to BFGoodrich for the suits that will protect them in outer space. BFGoodrich exits the tire business. BFGoodrich celebrates its 125th anniversary. Now building on its strengths in aerospace and performance materials, BFGoodrich is a company with a proud heritage and an exciting future. BFGoodrich completes acquisition of Rohr. The addition of this outstanding company, with annual sales of more than $1 billion, significantly expands BFG's presence as a supplier of complex integrated aircraft systems. July 12, 1999 BFGoodrich acquires Coltec Industries, creating a multi-industry company with leading positions in aerospace, performance materials and engineered industrial products. 2001 BFGoodrich exits the specialty chemicals business completing its transformation to a leading aerospace and industrial products company. BFGoodrich becomes Goodrich Corporation to reflect the growing, dynamic company it has become. 2002 Goodrich spins off its industrial businesses to shareholders - creating two strong publicly traded companies focused on their own customers, products and markets. The new EnPro Industries, Inc. is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker symbol NPO. Goodrich acquires TRW Aeronautical Systems creating the world's largest "pure play" aerospace company.
