In 1990, Ken Rakusin took the position of president at Gordon Brush Manufacturing Company, but he was not sure what he was getting himself into. The company was based out of a dark and rundown 15,000 square foot facility.
Gordon Brush® has acquired an interest in P.S. Creations, LLC, the manufacturer of the award-winning, American-made, Platescrape and other products for cleaning and sanitizing surfaces. The Platescrape, invented by Nate Stein, is a bucket and brush tool for on-and-off-site pre-sanitation of dishes.
Gordon Brush received a letter of commendation from the United States Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) for the development of a “Chamber Brush” that cleans the main gun on the Abrams Tank, saving the Army $1.5 billion.
