Norwex is committed to radically reducing
the use of chemicals in personal care and cleaning to promote health. More than ever we feel the need to emphasize the positive
environmental impact of reducing chemical use.
During the past several hundred years, human activity has significantly
altered our global environment, and the negative effects of this are becoming alarmingly clear. No longer can we ignore the
warning signs from nature. This trend can be changed if we all work together and take honest responsibility for our planet.
It is a fact, household pollutants impact our environment. A radical reduction in the use of chemicals is an important step
to improve the health of our planet and our quality of life.
The Norwex corporate vision for our products reaches far
beyond the limited horizon of just making a profit; we are striving for a better quality of life for present and future generations.
Our deep central theme is reverence for the value and beauty of all life on a healthy planet. Join us in our effort to improve
quality of life in a profound way!
Norwex "clean without chemicals" was birthed in Norway in 1994,
soon after microfiber was first manufactured in Sweden.
Norwex enters the home party market in Norway in 1995
and the business grows quickly.
Norwex expands to Canada and the United States in the Spring of 1999 and experiences
great success and growth.
The business and product line expands to include personal care without chemicals.
The
company expands into Latvia and Lithuania in 2004 and in 2008 into Australia.
In 2007 the antibacterial microfiber
was introduced, and this product immediately became a success and pushed Norwex to the forefront of the industry. Extensive
research on our antibacterial microfiber is being carried out with the goal of introducing a second generation antibacterial
microfiber within a few years, which will further strengthen the position of Norwex as the world leader in the industry.
The
continued mission is to improve quality of life by radically reducing the use of chemicals in personal care and
cleaning.
Norwex has achieved a milestone of exceeding 20,000 consultants world-wide.
