Rubbermaid has a very long history within the fabric of the American manufacturing industry and it's role in making plastics a household item. When I visited the site I was very dissapointed that there was not any more consideration taken into this page other than it's current state as another asset of the Newell manufacturing empire. Newell-Rubbermaid is by no means Rubbermaid, as Newell is just the current majority stock holder. I think that the current page should really just be a stub for the REAL Rubbermaid. Lets be honest, this article isn't even about Rubbermaid but more about the Newell Manufacturing Company. I think more consideration needs to be given to the history of Rubbermaid and perhaps a list of past and present key players responsible for its development. I am suggesting that the name "Rubbermaid" not be a redirection to "Newell Rubbermaid" as they are not one and the same. Newell Rubbermaid is only a recent development in Rubbermaid's long history in the manufacturing industry. Any comments?atshaw 23:01, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
I think you make a good point. There is a lot of history behind Rubbermaid - In fact, there's history behind each of the companies that Newell Rubbermaid acquired. How would you suggest the article be organized? Or would you start a new article for "Rubbermaid" and link to this one at the end?Bobzchemist 20:00, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
Searching for Reynolds I get redirected here, and the internal link again redirects to the disambig page! What to do about it? Elncid (talk) 12:40, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
There should be a separate article for Rubbermaid. http://www.ohiohistorycentral.org/entry.php?rec=980 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.180.42.150 (talk) 03:39, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
The article suggests that Newell-Rubbermaid owns Uni-ball, which they don't - they distribute Uni-ball's products in the US. The linked article on Uni-ball mentions correctly that Sanford (Newell-Rubbermaid) distribute their products in the US. In most of the rest of the world, Uni-ball distribute their own products through local subsidiaries, and they have a similar arrangement with Faber-Castell in Germany.
