Grime Eater
Grime Eater™ Products Limited was established in 1982 by the original owners of Luster Sheen™, a brand name trusted by Canadians as a quality hand cleaner.
Years of research and thousands of experiments took place prior to the launch of the new company.
They had a single vision: “Grime Eater™ was to be innovative and unique in its approach to cleaning and conditioning the hands.
They recognized that Canadians face working conditions and temperature changes that are quite different than those in other countries, and as such, it was time for a “Made in Canada” solution. Grime Eater™ is, and will always remain, dedicated to this standard of excellence.
