Happy Holiday's from Gordon Brush®


"On behalf of all of us at Gordon Brush®, we wish our customers, vendors, affiliates, associates, partners, and the people of the United States of America, a safe and happy holiday season and a prosperous, healthy and successful 2020", said Ken Rakusin, President & CEO. "We also convey much gratitude to our men and women in uniform, and wish them Godspeed", added Rakusin.

Gordon Brush® has much to be thankful for as we close out 2019. As a manufacturer of industrial and janitorial brushes, "we can literally say that business is picking up", noted Rakusin. The Company was a Gold Sponsor of the inaugural Made in America Convention, which was held at the Indianapolis, Indiana convention center on October 4-6, 2019. At the convention, the Company
received the United States of America Armed Forces Award. This award was presented to the Company for the development of a "Chamber Brush" (the brush that cleans the main gun on the Abrams Tank) that saved the Army $1.5 billion. Also, at the convention, Mr. Rakusin, was presented with the Patriot Award for the Company's steadfastness in its philosophy and commitment to manufacturing in the United States.

Milwaukee Dustless Brush, our 122 year old manufacturing division of janitorial brushes, received ISSA's Diamond Anniversary Award at the 2019 ISSA CONVENTION, that was held at the Las Vegas, Nevada convention center on November 19-21.

The Company was issued three patents on its Seat Sweep® product line.  The Seat Sweep® line is a unique, thin profile floor broom, that comes in 24 different configurations, to sweep underneath seats in theaters, arenas, and stadiums. The Seat Sweep® can also be used in grocery stores, golf courses or wherever there are tight spaces and maneuverability is critical.

Gordon Brush® is looking forward to a robust 2020 as the promise of the trade deal with China will further stimulate the economy and an increase in custom brush business. This will enable the Company to employ more talented workers and provide a great living for them and their families.

"Our American made products give us the ability to display our patriotism and pride and to create feelings of goodwill when our customers receive American-made items. Gordon Brush is Proud To Be An American Manufacturer™," added Rakusin.

If a brush exists, we have it…if it doesn't we'll make it!
