Rockline Industries announced that it has made a significant donation to recovery relief efforts to support areas of the country impacted by recent hurricanes. Nearly 200,000 packages, including disinfecting wipes, baby wipes and moist flushable wipes are being donated to help aid thousands of families impacted by natural disasters in the southeastern U.S.

As part of Rockline’s charitable efforts, part of the donation was given to Convoy of Hope, a nonprofit organization with volunteers on the ground in communities most devastated by recent hurricanes. In addition, Rockline Industries and its subsidiary Iatric Manufacturing Solutions, located in Morristown, TN, and their associates will distribute wipe donations to the people of Tennessee and neighboring North Carolina. Rockline opened Iatric in Morristown, the heart of Hamblen County, in 2018. Hamblen, along with much of Eastern Tennessee, was greatly impacted by the recent hurricane. In addition, Rockline has donated and distributed wipes through two of its supplier partners located in the hardest hit areas, with their associates also helping in relief efforts.

Ron Kerscher, senior vice president of sales and marketing, says, “One of the core principles of our corporate values is to support the communities in which we live. Our company and associates are proud to help those impacted in our home state and surrounding neighbor states.”
