Don Romine
Chief Executive Officer
After attending Florida Institute of Technology, Don joined Web Industries right
out of school when Web was comprised of one manufacturing facility with 25
employees. Web’s founder, Robert Fulton, set out to build a contract
manufacturing company focused on converting technology for flexible materials.
Equally important was an unwavering commitment to strong values. He wanted to
establish a culture that measures success by building healthy relationships,
serving customers with excellent performance and respecting the inherent worth
of individuals. Don was tasked with weaving those key tenets into the fabric of
Web while leading the growth of the business. He has created opportunities for
people to develop their full potential while driving the expansion of Web’s
capabilities. A key milestone was our transition to a 100% employee-owned
corporation, further empowering our employees and recognizing their
contributions. Don has over 30 years experience leading Web Industries, having
served as Manufacturing Supervisor, Plant Manager, General Manager, Vice
President for Manufacturing and as President since 1991.
