Named the “Original Green Cleaner”, Simple Green is an all-purpose cleaner invented by a father and son for the purpose of keeping their family safe from harmful chemical products. Simple Green is a concentrated, non-toxic, biodegradable, non-abrasive, non-flammable, and economical consumer product. The cleaner/degreaser is environmentally sensitive and can be used on any washable surface from floors and walls to laundry and vehicles. Because it is a concentrate, Simple Green can be custome diluted to clean just about anything dirty. It replaces most cleaners, detergents, degreasers, and laundry pre-soaks. Simple Green removes tough stains such as dirt, grease, oil, pet stains, coffe, juices, lipstick, blood, and adhesives. Simple Green is a versatile product without harmful bleach that keeps the family and environment safe.

During spring cleaning, I find it tough on myself to use all the abrasive products made separately for different rooms of the house. I have so many products used to cover different surfaces that I can’t keep them straight. I also have to deal with my sneezing and skin iritation from the chemicals. Plus, my dogs don’t react well with the chemicals either considering that they usually sneeze and run to the other side of the room. Simple Green sounds like a very useful product making it easier on me and my family when it comes to cleaning. I won’t have to worry about the sneezing or the dozens of different products. I can save money because I’ll only need one cleaner. All at the same time, I’ll be keeping my environment safe, too. I feel like a better citizen already!
