Ecover Wool & Silk Laundry Detergent

Ecover is a pioneering brand in the eco-friendly cleaning industry, originally established in Belgium in 1979. The brand was founded with the mission to create phosphate-free cleaning products that minimize environmental impact. Its primary manufacturing facility, known as the 'ecological factory' due to its sustainable design and grass roof, is located in Malle, Belgium, where the majority of its European product line is produced.

In 2012, Ecover acquired the San Francisco-based brand Method to expand its global reach and share green chemistry innovations. However, the ownership landscape shifted significantly in 2017 when both Ecover and Method were acquired by SC Johnson, a major American multinational consumer chemicals company. Under SC Johnson's ownership, the brand continues to emphasize biodegradable ingredients and plant-based formulas, maintaining its position as a leading choice for specialized laundry care like wool and silk detergents.
