Meet Melanie Day - Kent Elastomer Products

Melanie Day has been a team member at KEP for the long haul! Melanie first worked on the strip line at our Winesburg facility from 1991-2004. She then returned to KEP in 2019 and has been a line coach at Winesburg since. Melanie’s daily contributions to our strip line are very appreciated – you can always find her helping others achieve their goals and she makes it a point to build solid relationships with all of our team members.

Melanie’s best day at work? “When a coworker tells me I’m making a difference,” says Melanie. In her free time, Melanie enjoys being with family – you can find them vacationing in Florida, spending time at the swimming pool or lake in the summer, and kicking back with some popcorn and Netflix in the colder months!
