Ecover
Ecover is a Belgium-based company that manufactures ecologically sound cleaning products (made from plant-based and mineral ingredients).
==History==
The company was founded in 1980 by Frans Bogaerts to create phosphate-free cleaning products to reduce the environmental impact of cleaning agents.〔 Following expansion to support sales through supermarkets, it ran into financial difficulties during the early 1990s.〔 The business was sold to Bogaerts' son and rescued by Gunter Pauli, a member of the company's Board since 1990. Pauli, in turn, enlisted in 1992 the financial clout of now-deceased Danish investor, Jørgen Philip-Sørensen, through the private investment company Skagen. The company's relaunch commenced with the construction of a "ecological factory", followed by investments into research projects for the purpose of developing appropriate plant-based and renewable raw materials for cleaning products.
Ecover is part of the Ecover Group,〔(Ecover Group )〕 a global organisation. Aquaver 〔(Aquaver )〕 and The Change Initiatives 〔(The Change Initiative )〕 are other companies of the Ecover Group.
In 2012 Ecover bought Method Products, a San Francisco, United States headquartered manufacturer of cleaning products, to assist its entry of the North American market. The new group had annual revenues of $200 million.〔
