Myni
After discovering that harsh cleaning products had corroded the pipes under her kitchen sink, Vancouver native Marie-Hélène David began to wonder what they might be doing to her skin and health.

Clean Canadian
As more Canadians lean into shopping local in 2025, spring cleaning is the perfect moment to refresh not just your space—but your shopping habits too. Swapping in Canadian-made cleaning products can even make that Saturday deep clean feel a bit more fun. Here are a few of the most frequently asked questions about popular cleaning products:
Is Mrs. Meyer’s a Canadian brand?
Nope. Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day was founded in the U.S. back in 2000. While it’s a staple on Canadian store shelves, it’s not made here.

Method launched in San Francisco in 2000. The products are popular in Canada, but the brand itself isn’t Canadian.
If you’re looking to clean with local brands, there are plenty of Canadian alternatives worth considering. From everyday home sprays to heavy-duty solutions like Dustbane for commercial spaces, choosing local brands is a smart (and sustainable) way to align your spring clean with your values.
