Brush manufacturers from around the world and their suppliers were well represented at the 55th annual Mill-Rose Brush Manufacturers luncheon, held in January at Pickwick & Frolick restaurant in downtown Cleveland.

At the luncheon’s opening, Mill-Rose President Paul Miller welcomed representatives from the United States and countries as far away as Europe, Mexico and Canada that attended the event, hosted by The Mill-Rose Company. “Networking plays an important role in our business and there is no better way of communicating with contributors to our industry, whether manufacturers or suppliers, than at this annual meeting,” noted Paul Miller.

Manufacturers and suppliers gathered during the week before the luncheon to discuss business trends, opportunities and other topics related to the brush industry. Brushes manufactured by representative companies are used in virtually every type of industry around the world.  Applications include makeup/mascara brushes, hair brushes, floor sweeping and polishing brushes, gun cleaning brushes, car wash brushes, copier toner brushes, brooms, paint brushes and special brushes used in the medical field.
