Examples of some of the industries we work with

  • A cookie factory worked with Gordon Brush to come up with a way of removing baking deposits from its stainless steel conveyer belt.  Gordon Brush designed and built a special wire roller brush which now keeps the entire conveyor belt clean with only one revolution of the belt with the brush in action.
  • Laser optics are cleaned without scratching by a silk brush Gordon Brush developed for the military.
  • NASA’s space telescope was susceptible to dust getting on its lens after the doors were opened. Gordon Brush built the space agency a vacuum brush to dust the inside of the doors and protect the sensitive lens.

As a result, today Gordon Brush produces 15,000 different brushes, and adds 15-20 new brushes every week from a world-wide diversity of industries.

Gordon Brush makes high quality brushes.  The company's goal is to help its customers improve their productivity and profitability by providing them with high quality brushes which suit their exact requirements.
