Project Description:

After eight years of work, CleanWell has created a formulation of natural essential plant oils kills 99.99% of germs and includes no toxic chemicals. CleanWell began because one of the founders, Sam DeAth, had a son whom was diagnosed with a Combined Severe Immune Deficiency that made only 10% of his immune system functional. The simplest childhood activities for Conor posed life threatening. So, itt was critical for Conor’s parents to make their home exceptionally safe. Sam began investigating natural alternatives to disinfecting agents found in everyday cleaning products. Triclosan is one main toxin found in most antibacterial liquid soaps and many common household products including deodorant, toothpaste and plastics.

CleanWell incorporates thyme in their blend of essential oils in their products. Thyme has had a long history of use as a medicinal plant to ward off sickness. It has been used as an antiseptic for thousands of years in Roman, Greek and Indian (Ayurvedic) medicine.

The CleanWell Company is privately owned and was founded by Sam DeAth and Dr. Larry Weiss. Their company is committed to producing products that work and “don’t force a tradeoff between being effective and being safe”. Their products are made with a patented formulation of natural essential plant oils and are all recognized as safe by the FDA and have been used safely by people around the world for centuries.
