From the First Day of School to the Last
Back-to-school season is here! As students prepare for the 2019-20 school year and all that comes with it, KEP is also gearing up to support the next generation of leaders and athletes!
Is your young learner interested in science and technology? If so, they might be participating in the FIRST Robotics Competition. Every year for over 15 years, Kent Elastomer has donated elastomer supplies for the kit of materials student participants receive to build their robots and complete the challenge! Over the years, we have donated thousands of feet of latex tubing to be used in kits. KEP is proud to be a silver level supplier and help support these students!
It doesn’t stop there. Next time you’re cheering on the team, be on the lookout for products KEP manufactures! Our resistance tubing provides the strength and quality athletic teams need to train for the win. KEP products are used to make goals and practice targets for lacrosse, soccer and hockey.
From the elastic bands on children’s braces to the materials they use to build amazing things, we’re proud to be there from the first day of school to the last!
