We’ve been on a lot of first dates.
(World’s First Mascara Brush – 1958)
Back in 1958, shortly after Ken Sanderson and Bruce MacLeod started their company with three employees and a few basic machines, they received the request that would change everything. A Hollywood makeup artist (Howard Mellon) had an idea…and asked the two brushmakers from Palmer, MA, to develop a mascara applicator made from a twisted wire brush…up until then, the product was put on using a device similar to a wood screw, uggh!
Soon, with submitted samples accepted and production capacity built, Sanderson MacLeod would go on to establish an industry standard that is still widely used today. Neither mascara nor the way young women prepare for a first date would ever be the same again… Thanks, guys.
Psst…Looking for a tip? The Z-Tip.
(Medical Brush Tip Patent – 2014)
We’re always looking for better ways to solve even the most challenging customer problems. That’s why, knowing the flaws of existing medical protective brush tips, we set out to find a better way.
Searching beyond the brush industry, we found our answer in material joining engineering. After many rounds of exhausting research, trials, and consumer testing, we devised a new manufacturing process using high-energy fusion-welding technologies.
The result? Fully automated, high capacity, vision controlled production lines capable of transforming preconstructed core wire sections of twisted wire brushes into a consistent (+/- .001”), smooth and inseparable protective tip.
Customer problem solved.
The Z-Tip. No other brush maker is doing anything like this.
Pickles and Ice Cream? Not so good.
Our new hybrid brushes? Really good.
(Hybrid/Attachment Patent – 2017)
Sometimes, combining two great things make them even better. Think peanut butter and chocolate. Think baseball and hot dogs. Think pickles and ice cream….well, most great things.
Now, for the first time, Sanderson MacLeod’s patented attachment process makes combining never before possible materials (such as molded and traditional fiber brushes), tools, testing materials and molded components a reality. Imagine…No more wishing a brush could “almost” do something. Discover the new aesthetic and functional possibilities for designing your ultimate multi-purpose cleaning, deburring and polishing tool today.
The way we see it, the only thing better than having one great thing is having two…Together.
