About Us

Our 
Story

Potomac Rubber is a women-owned, 4th generation Family Business that first opened in 1921. We have a long history of providing industrial goods and products to an array of businesses in DC, MD, VA, and beyond.

The current owner, Nicole Ogle Erbe, took over the business in 2018 upon the passing of her mother and previous business owner, Sharon Ogle. Since then, Nicole has made great strides in updating services and equipment, expanding our inventory, and creating a special relationship with her customers.

“Potomac Rubber has been my family legacy long before I came around. While my original background was in Veterinary Medicine, transitioning to an Industrial Sales business was not as far of a stretch as I’d imagined! I have a wonderful team of staff that are extremely experienced and knowledgeable. Coming to Potomac Rubber was the best decision I’ve made for my career and day to day happiness. I love working with our customers. I love solving problems and I always strive to create a wonderful experience for anyone who does business with us. Thank you for your support and continued loyalty to my family business!” - Nicole Ogle Erbe
