AMWAY GLOBAL COMBINES NEW PRODUCTS WITH OLD FAVORITES TO LAUNCH LEGACY OF CLEAN

Legacy of Clean Offers Planet Positive Cleaning Products that Perform with Less Harm

Ada, Mich., (September 15, 2009) /PRNewswire/ — Expanding upon its legacy as a home care leader, Amway Global shines up its home and laundry care offerings by launching the LEGACY OF CLEAN™ line. LEGACY OF CLEAN is a PLANET POSITIVE™ brand consisting of new products and some reformulations of long-time favorites.

"The creation of the LEGACY OF CLEAN brand allows us to expand on our already high-performing, environmentally-sensitive offerings while also bringing all of our home and laundry care products under one consistent brand that reflects the history, performance and focus of these products," explained Jori Hartwig, Vice President of Marketing for Amway Global. The LEGACY OF CLEAN brand will better represent the performance and safety of Amway Global's home and laundry care formulas, most of which were environmentally sensitive far before eco-conscious products became popular.

Many LEGACY OF CLEAN products are recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Design for the Environment program. Amway has more than 50 years of experience in manufacturing environmentally responsible home cleaning and laundry care products. In 1959, Amway became one of the first companies to produce a high-performing, earth-sensitive cleaner called Liquid Organic Cleaner (L.O.C.®), which is still part of Amway's product offering.

The LEGACY OF CLEAN line includes everything from laundry detergents to surface cleaners to dishwashing detergents and more. The products have been designed to do their job, yet are safe for your home, your family, and the earth when used as directed. LEGACY OF CLEAN promotes the highest performing formulas, while still using biodegradable ingredients and recyclable packaging. Concentrated formulas allow for minimal water, energy and waste usage.
