Olympic Cleen: back in the day.
About 30 years ago, teams of people travelled all over New Zealand, going door to door to introduce Olympic Cleen to homes & businesses.
Door to door, town to town.
One knock at a time, Olympic Cleen found its way into homes & businesses right across the country.
The idea was simple: one citrus concentrate you mix to suit the job, from light to heavy duty. Just add water.
Looking for Olympic Cleen today?
The just-add-water idea lives on in our Citrus Cleaner concentrate & colour-coded refillable spray bottles.
Tried & proven on…
