As our ongoing 70th anniversary celebration coincides with Earth Day, we proudly remember Green Earth® dilution control as the start of our sustainability promise.

Because we are always looking ahead to invest in new technologies, that sustainability promise has culminated today in a state-of-the-art plant for the fermentation of microbes used in eco-friendly cleaning products. Since we control the fermentation process from start to finish, the result is higher-quality strains of bacteria in our EnviroZyme® Probiotic Solutions (formerly known as BioActive Solutions™) line.
