The company manages the Gorilla Glue®, Gorilla Tape®, O'Keeffe's® and Lutz Tool® Brands. With over 800 employees, the company has seen much success and growth and has been recognized as one of the top places to work by the Cincinnati Enquirer over the last 15 years. This growth reiterates our need to continue to bring in the best people to help run and grow the business.

The Gorilla Glue® and Gorilla Tape® brands are leaders in adhesive solutions for DIYers, woodworkers and professionals. The company revamped the retail adhesive landscape with its 1999 introduction of the wildly popular Gorilla Glue, a unique, all-purpose adhesive with an amazing ability to bond almost any material including wood, ceramic, stone, metal and more. On a mission to make products that deliver impressive results, the company has since expanded its offerings to include Gorilla Tape®, Gorilla™ Super Glue Impact-Tough® Formula, Gorilla™ Wood Glue, and Gorilla™ Epoxy, further solidifying the brand’s reputation as the “go-to” product line FOR THE TOUGHEST JOBS ON PLANET EARTH®.

O'Keeffe's Company® manufactures and sells Working Hands® and Healthy Feet hand and foot creams to consumers across the USA and Canada. Developed more than 25 years ago by a pharmacist, these creams are targeted to people with severely dry, cracked hands and feet.
