For the past 30 years, we’ve been a company with strong beliefs about the rights of people and planet. We’re a company that believes you have a right to know that the products you buy are safe for you, your family, and our environment. We believe that a company's values are as important as the products it makes. We know that plant-based products can provide exceptional efficacy, and that products designed from renewable plant-based ingredients are better for the planet than products made from petroleum. We believe that waste, is well... a waste. It's why we use recycled materials to design our packaging, and why we design our packaging to be recycled. We have a lot of beliefs, but the biggest one is that we have a responsibility to this generation and the next seven. What do you believe? We invite you in our journey to nurture the health of the next seven generations.

The Simple Green® story began 50 years ago, long before "environmentally friendly" products were mandated by law. Bruce FaBrizio and his father developed a safer alternative to the toxic cleaners being used to remove tannic acid, a by-product of coffee roasting, from roasting machinery. It took three years to perfect the biodegradable, not-toxic, non-flammable, non-abrasive formula. After its initial success, Bruce began selling Simple Green to automotive and industrial customers in 55-gallon drums; which he delivered in his van, for use as a cleaner on equipment and floors.
In 1979, just as initial retail marketing efforts were beginning to pay off, Bruce's father passed away. Though devastated, Bruce persevered and through grit and determination was able to keep the business alive. In 1981 he gave his company the name it continues to carry — Sunshine Makers, Inc. Simple Green was then introduced nationally into several new markets including Hardware/Do It Yourself, automotive, consumer grocery & drug, GSA (government) and Club-Store classes of trade.
In the early 1990s, Bruce created the Environmental Technology Division within his company in order to define the cutting edge of cleaning solution tech and solidify his company's high standards for environmental responsibility. Today, millions of dollars have been spent to prove the safety and efficacy claims of Simple Green. Sunshine Makers, Inc. is still owned and operated by Bruce P. FaBrizio.
In 2025 Simple Green celebrated our 50 year anniversary.
