Did you know
- Swarfega was invented in 1947 by British chemist Audley Bowdler Williamson. It was originally developed from a silk stocking protector formulation created in 1941, which was repurposed after the decline of the silk stocking market.
- Swarfega Original Classic is the benchmark heavy-duty hand cleaner within the Swarfega range, designed for moderate oil and grime. Other products like Swarfega Orange and Swarfega Extreme offer enhanced cleaning power for heavier industrial soils.
- Swarfega is chosen for its ability to effectively remove ingrained oil, grease, carbon deposits, inks, and adhesives from hands without relying on harsh petroleum-based solvents, while also incorporating conditioners to leave skin feeling smooth.
