A Decade of Safer Cleaning Solutions

Jelmar is not only honored but thrilled to announce that it remains the first and only company to ever achieve this milestone.
"Ten years at the top—it's an extraordinary feat! This isn't just about another recognition; it's a testament to our passion for creating cleaning solutions that make a real difference for consumers," said Jeffrey Pozen, President and COO of Jelmar. "We're leading the charge towards healthier households, and our ongoing partnership with the EPA Safer Choice program continues to inspire us to push boundaries in green innovation."
Greenvenient™ in Action: A Decade of Safe, Smart Cleaning
Jelmar has championed the concept of Greenvenient™—the perfect balance of green, high-performance cleaning that doesn't sacrifice convenience. Since the inception of the EPA Safer Choice program in 2015, Jelmar has been ahead of the curve, consistently setting higher standards in environmentally responsible cleaning.
"This tenth consecutive win is a reflection of our relentless commitment to safer chemistry," said Pozen. "Our customers deserve products that work, but they also deserve peace of mind. Our mission is to create solutions that do both."
What Sets Jelmar Apart?
- Unrivaled Dedication: Jelmar's unwavering support for the EPA Safer Choice program is reflected in its portfolio of 13 Safer Choice-certified products, which generates nearly 90% of the company's sales, spanning both consumer and professional cleaning solutions.
- Innovative Formulations: From the industry-leading CLR® Calcium, Lime & Rust Remover to the versatile CLR PRO® Multi-Purpose Cleaner, each product is meticulously crafted with safer, greener ingredients—free from harmful phosphates, solvents, and surfactants.
- A Broader Impact: Jelmar doesn't just meet the program's standards; it exceeds them by advocating for safer chemistry across its entire supply chain, from retailers like Walmart and Target to eco-conscious consumers making informed choices.
Beyond Cleaning: A Holistic Approach to Sustainability
While Jelmar's Safer Choice-certified products set the standard for safe cleaning, the company's sustainability efforts go beyond the bottle. The company is reducing its plastic footprint, exploring sustainable packaging innovations, and inspiring change across industries, earning recognition from organizations like Atlantic Packaging.
