On a cold, crisp winter day...New Year's 1906...a 21-year-old entrepreneur from Nova Scotia, Alfred C. Fuller, began an enterprise which has become known worldwide as The Fuller Brush Company. From a bench between the furnace and the coal bin in his sister's New England home, young Fuller set out to make, in his own words:

Through the years, The Fuller Brush Company has grown from one man's fiber suitcase, filled with unique custom-made brushes, to an exciting collection of home/business care, and personal care products, all crafted with the same quality and precision that have made The Fuller Brush Company a name welcomed everywhere.

From the beginning Fuller established three basic rules:

• Make it work
• Make it last
• Guarantee it no matter what.

Today, almost a century later, these words still guide The Fuller Brush Company.

The Fuller Brush Company continues to grow and to answer the need for unique, quality products and personal service. The modern and flexible manufacturing facility near Great Bend, Kansas, continues a tradition of excellence by producing the world-famous quality products associated with The Fuller Brush Company.
