The History of Norwex

  • Norwex originated in Norway in 1994.  The product line was originally developed for the commercial cleaning industry.  In Europe, microfiber products are commonly used in homes, hospitals, schools, hotels and various commercial applications.

  • Popularity grew quickly and the Home Party market was opened in 1995.

While traveling in Norway two dynamic women from Dauphin, Manitoba were introduced to the product line.  They saw the potential for microfiber in North America and in true entrepreneurial fashion set forth on their mission. Head Office remains in Dauphin, Manitoba and products have been distributed throughout North America since 1999.

  • The Norwex product line expanded to include environmentally gentle personal care items.

  • Norwex products are sold in various countries throughout the world offering environmental friendly cleaning alternatives as well as career opportunities.

  • The company plans to expand to new countries and offers franchise opportunities.

How Does Microfiber Work?

Used dry; the microfiber functions as a magnet on dust. Dust and dirt are attracted and bound to the microfiber surface by static charge.

Used damp; with clean water it removes grease and stains. The fibers break the surface tension of the water and with the help of capillary-action lift dirt from the surface. 

Wet, Wring, Wipe, and Walk away!
With Norwex microfiber there is nothing left behind but a clean surface!

 Laboratory tests show greater than 99% bacteria reduction on smooth surfaces.

Cleaning with the Norwex microfiber can reduce the consumption of cleaning chemicals in your home up to 90% while at the same time cutting down your exposure to toxic fumes. Norwex products dramatically improve the quality of life, ideal for those with allergies and chemical sensitivities. Norwex microfiber cloths are very durable. They are widely used in commercial cleaning environments and can withstand the rigors of everyday usage.

Did you know?...

 

*         “A major portion of the toxic and hazardous chemicals that you have and use in your home can be found in your cleaning products” (Source – Prosperity without pollution; Hirschorn and Oldenburg, 1991).

*         Cleaning chemicals are the most frequent type of chemicals involved in poisonings reported to 'Poison Control Centers' in the United States.  Most occur in children under the age of 6.

*         “Indoor air is often two to five times more contaminated than outdoor air” (American Lung Association).  In addition to industrial and outdoor air pollutants, the Canadian Lung Association highlights residential pesticides and indoor chemical pollutants found in many common household products as causes and triggers of respiratory illnesses.

*         “The toxic chemicals in household cleaners are three times more likely to cause cancer than air pollution” - Environmental Protection Agency, 1985.

*         “Women who work at home have a 54% higher death rate from cancer than those who work away from home.”  The 15-year study concluded it was a direct result of the much higher exposure rate to toxic chemicals in common household products (Toronto Indoor Air Conference 1990).  

*         The Consumer Product Safety Commission on "CHEMICALS COMMONLY FOUND IN THE HOME" identified 150 as linked to allergies, birth defects, cancer and psychological abnormalities.

*         The EPA tallied close to 10,000 chemical ingredients in cosmetics, food and consumer products. Very few of these chemicals were in our environment or our bodies just 75 years ago…and except in the case of foods, drugs or pesticides, companies are under no legal or regulatory obligation to assess how these products might harm human health…and most have not been tested as such.

*         Recent medical and scientific studies suggest that chronic exposure to low levels of synthetic chemicals and "toxins" found in indoor air pollution may be linked to numerous health concerns, including but not limited to: allergies, asthma, autoimmune diseases, cancer, Alzheimer's, ADD ( Attention Deficit Disorder ) ; and Multiple Chemical Sensitivities.  Unfortunately, people overlook the cumulative effect of repeated exposure to cleaning chemicals since no one is really affected by a single exposure of handling them.
