Starting out as a parquet flooring company in 1886, Samuel Curtis Johnson responded to his customers' requests for an effective floor polish by creating Johnson's Prepared Paste Wax, which was a runaway success. Over the past 120 years, five generations of the Johnson family have continued to respond to consumer demand for innovative and high quality household products. As a result the company is now a highly successful multinational corporation with millions of people in over 100 countries using their products everyday.
In 1927 H.F. Johnson Senior asserted that "The goodwill of the people is the only enduring thing in any business". Since then SC Johnson has striven to earn the lasting goodwill of its consumers by producing effective and high quality products that can be trusted to deliver impressive results.
SC Johnson has a long term commitment to invest in local communities. In the UK it has established a "Giving Back" programme through which they help bodies such as local NHS Trusts and schools.
Environmental responsibility is taken very seriously at SC Johnson. Since 1990 streamlining their products and manufacturing processes has allowed the company to cut over 460 million pounds of waste and they now use more recycled packaging, more recyclable packaging and less harsh ingredients than ever before.
