Gordon Brush Acquires Custom Brush Company
Gordon Brush Mfg. Co., Inc. announced in December that it had acquired the assets of Custom Brush Company in Cherry Hill, NJ, and that the company’s operations would be moved immediately to Gordon Brush’s 183,000 sq. ft. facility in City of Industry, Calif.
Custom Brush Company Inc. was founded in 1968 by Arthur Levit, a veteran of the industrial and commercial brush industry. In 2000, Custom Brush was acquired by Robin Reisman, the daughter of Mr. Levit. Reisman says, “The goal was to supply high-quality American-made replacement brushes at reasonable prices. We felt that Gordon Brush was the best fit to take Custom Brush Company to the next level, to continue our family tradition of individualized customer service, and to best manufacture our American-made line of brushes.”
Gordon Brush President Ken Rakusin says, “This is our 17th acquisition and Custom Brush will add to our group of amazing companies: Marx Brush, Milwaukee Dustless Brush, JEK, Redtree Industries, Brush Supply, StaticFaction, J. B. Ward, Kirschner Brush, Easy Reach Supply, Spectrum Paint Applicators, Parker Brush, Justman Brush and Mr. LongArm. The Custom Brush acquisition dramatically enhances our scale, product offerings and geographic reach – creating new synergies that better position us for future growth and investment in new and existing markets. As the demand for American-made products increases, we are proud to be leading the charge.”
