Founded in Rosenberg, TX in 1983, partners Mark Freeman and Marty Hopkins began in the oil tool industry making alloy balls and seats with their company Tungsten Trim Works. Mark and Marty incorporated Bubbletight in 2010 to make and sell balls used for zonal isolation – frac balls.
Bubbletight first marketed degradable polymer frac balls in 2013. In 2014 Bubbletight introduced degradable metal balls to the industry. Bubbletight began manufacturing custom degradable frac plugs in 2015. In 2016, Bubbletight introduced DDP™ – the world’s first low-temperature degradable diverter polymer.
