Rodicut

What Rodicut does

Rodicut Industry S.A.U. is a Spanish manufacturer founded in 1983 in Mos (Pontevedra), near Vigo, that specializes in compact polyurethane components for industrial use. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the EOS Corrugated Group and operates with 11–50 employees, exporting over 80% of its production through a network of more than 30 exclusive agents and distributors covering 100+ countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. Rodicut is ISO 9001 certified and holds sympathiser membership in FEFCO, the European Federation of Corrugated Packaging Manufacturers.

Rodicut's core product portfolio centers on anvil covers (counter-knife bands) for rotary die-cutting machines in multiple proprietary formulations: standard 88 and 91 Shore hardness covers with puzzle/knuckle tool-free mounting, LongLife extended-wear covers, FullCut covers with optimized anti-spring-effect geometry, Rapid Cover V7 free-wheeling covers enabling 2-minute single-operator rotation, and the industry's MBOCA Free non-toxic curing formulation. The portfolio also includes Aurora feed and no-crush wheels (co-developed with Policart), stitch flap covers and creasing profiles, rotary cutting dies and die-making consumables, plus custom polyurethane parts for non-corrugated industries such as quarries and stone cutting, automotive, mining, civil engineering, and general industrial machinery.

The business model is hardware sales of manufactured consumables, with all revenue generated through the exclusive agent and distributor network; no direct e-commerce or self-serve channel is operated, and pricing is not publicly disclosed. Customers contact the headquarters' commercial department in Mos and are routed to their nearest agent. Differentiation rests on 40+ years of polyurethane formulation expertise, registered brand families (FullCut, LongLife, Rapid Cover V7, MBOCA Free, Aurora), coverage across most major machine brands, and a polyurethane recovery and recycling cycle for production waste.
