Thankful for Our Community of Support
Thankful for Our Community of Support
A big THANK YOU to our customers, employees, and our families. We are who we are and where we are because of you! Our customers have helped us grow thanks to their business and dedicated partnership. Our employees have helped us succeed with their hard work and continual contributions. Plus, all of our families have helped keep us going strong every day with their unwavering support.
The community of support we have has kept KEP going and growing strong since 1960. With the same dedication we have to making high-quality flexible tubing and dip-molded products, we are also passionate about giving back to the community that supports us by finding ways throughout the year to contribute to the lives of people in need.
Each quarter all of our facilities participate at Ronald McDonald House Akron, providing meals to families staying at Ronald McDonald House while their family member is being treated at Akron Children’s Hospital. We provide meals to 50 people in 20 rooms. Last year, thanks to our employees’ and their families’ efforts and a company match, we donated $10K to Ronald McDonald House to fund a room. Ask us about how you can get involved!
