History

From the first brushmaking efforts in 1887 came the initial DQB plant in 1892, and by 1908 it was already producing custom brushes for Detroit’s burgeoning auto industry.

In the next few decades, DQB would grow to supply both World War efforts as well as custom applications of brushes worldwide.

After growing in and out of three manufacturing facilities in Detroit, DQB moved to its current manufacturing facility in 1974 – and moved into the retail hardware market as well — with 130,000-plus square feet to serve retail and industrial customers with the finest materials, expertise and service.

Innovation, attention to detail, quality, service and a razor-sharp focus on manufacturing the finest brushes at the lowest possible cost to you, our valued customers: For over 100 years, this has been our mission. DQB will continue to support our customers with on-line conveniences that brings DQB into the modern era, and we will keep current with all our customers’ needs and requirements. With that in mind, we look forward to the next 100 years with the same anticipation as the first 100.
