Wooster Brush
<h3>America's Oldest Paint Applicator Manufacturer</h3><p>Established in 1851, The Wooster Brush Company is one of the oldest manufacturers of paint applicators in the USA. Company founder Adam Foss traveled from Pennsylvania to Ohio to set up shop, beginning production of handmade bristle paint brushes in a small, two-story building in Wooster, Ohio, selling them door-to-door throughout the state. For over 170 years, The Wooster Brush Company has crafted the highest quality paint applicators and tools in Wooster, Ohio.</p><h3>Innovation That Changed the Industry</h3><p>Wooster Brush isn't just a historic brand—it's a pioneering force in painting technology. Wooster invented the angle paintbrush, designed to provide extra control and improve ergonomics, and it's now the most popular style in the USA. During World War II, when the US Government halted trade with China preventing imports of China bristle, Wooster engineered a solution using synthetic filament from DuPont, quickly providing nylon brushes to the U.S. military. These innovations laid the foundation for the modern painting tools professionals rely on today.</p><p>Paintbrushes or rollers, surface prep tools, roller frames and extension poles—their problem-solving products help painters work faster, produce a more professional finish, and eliminate hassles. The company manufactures nearly 2,000 products across multiple categories, including their renowned <a href="/7658-wooster-brush-paint-brushes-200761">Paint Brushes</a>, high-performance <a href="/7658-wooster-brush-paint-rollers-frames-trays-200764">Paint Rollers, Frames & Trays</a>, and convenient <a href="/7658-wooster-brush-brushes-disposable-200208">Brushes - Disposable</a> for quick projects.</p><h3>American Manufacturing Excellence</h3><p>The Wooster Brush Company is the largest privately owned paint applicator manufacturer in the U.S.A.
