Foam tapes, die cut parts, electrical insulation, EMI shielding, fiberglass insulation for OEM equipment.

After completing service in the United States Army, Robert W. Ricketts III began a sales career.  That career lead him to Dallas, whereupon in 1968 he established SpecTape of Texas, a distributor of pressure sensitive tapes.  In 1970, he also assisted in forming National Label Systems, Inc, to compliment the SpecTape line of products.  In 1972 the 2 companies were merged and renamed Concote Corporation.  SpecTape remained a trade name and operating division of Concote.  In the early 1980's, Bob and his partners purchased Insul-Fab of Texas as a small custom converter of  equipment grade fiberglass and foam goods and developed it into a world-class provider of a variety of products to OEM markets.  Although he recently resigned his title as Chief Executive Officer to pursue other interests, Bob Ricketts still serves as Chairman of the Board of Concote Corporation.    

 

Robert E. Hanton has over 35 years of experience in the pressure sensitive tape and label industry and at least as many years experience as an accountant.  Bob Hanton began his career with Mueller Brass in Port Huron, Michigan.  In 1969, Mr. Hanton moved to Dallas and became a cost accountant for Bayfield Industries before meeting Bob Ricketts and becoming a business partner in 1970.  In the early days, his roles included Label Press Operator by day, and Accountant at night while developing the company.  More recently, he is commonly known as the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Concote Corporation.

 
Shelby Ricketts represents the second generation of ownership of Concote Corporation.  Shelby has been involved with Concote Corporation since his childhood, spending summers loading trucks or producing parts.  Shelby joined Concote in an official capacity in 1998, after practicing law with a Dallas law firm and serving as Real Estate Counsel for Blockbuster Entertainment at its corporate headquarters in Dallas.  Today, Shelby serves as President and Chief Operations Officer of Concote Corporation, emphasizing Quality and Management Systems for the company.
