Lake Express Bike Drive 2023 

The Lake Express Ferry on Friday April 28th with the help of Rebel Converting, collected bikes to support recreation and good health in the community with its annual bike drive. For the first 500 people that donated a bike, in return they were given a complimentary roundtrip passenger ticket to the Lake Express Terminal. These bikes will be then tuned up and ready to go for this years annual Bike Day June 17 at Kosciuszko Park on Milwaukee‘s south side.  Please note, Lake Express begins its travel season on Friday, May 5.

Rebel Reform & MAS

Rebel Converting will be sponsoring MAS’s annual Gala, Night with the Novas, on Friday, November 4th at Discovery World. We’re looking forward to a fantastic evening, as we honor both Kathy Thornton-Bias of the Boys and Girls Club along with the Burke Foundation. MAS is chartered by the City of Milwaukee and serves over 1,400 K4-12th grade students. (Over the past 6 years this has increased by over 400 students!) 97% of whom come from economically disadvantaged families with incomes less than $24,000 for families of four. The school is producing truly amazing results! 100% of the seniors have graduation each of the last 8 years and have been accepted into post-secondary education. Over the past year, the graduating class was eligible for over $10 million in scholarships! There are many different opportunities that you could do to join in support of MAS as well as making our community a better place. 

BREAKING NEWS!

 Rebel Converting has acquired ESS (Environmentally Sensitive Solutions) from Mequon, WI.  ESS has been producing environmentally friendly, neutral pH, cleaning products since 1993.  The addition of Matt Pliska and ESS will help Rebel with its mission to help provide superior cleaning and natural disinfecting products using environmentally sound chemistry. ESS was founded by an experienced cleaning formulation chemist with one simple goal: to replace existing hazardous cleaning products with safer, more environmentally friendly options. The theory was simple; if a cleaner works as well or better, costs the same or less, and by the way, is safer and more environmentally friendly – then that is a win for everyone! That is still the ESS philosophy today. Cleaning does not have to be hazardous. With neutral cleaning technology, hazardous cleaners are now virtually obsolete for many many cleaning applications. Along with this acquisition – Rebel is introducing Ridley! Click on the highlighted Nonwovens link to read what they had to say about about Rebel and ESS.
