While on tour of the Maine marinas, our team fielded a question from a sternman who spilled a large quantity of full strength, undiluted Vivesan Marine Cleaner on his skin. It did not burn him, as had other products he'd used in the past. The lobsterman asked us if there was going to be a problem, and why didn't it burn? We told him that it's no problem because Vivesan is 100% plant-based, and skin contact--even at full strength--has no side effects or impact on human health. His response: "Cool!"

The Vivesan team recently visited Friendship Trap in Maine and saw how lobster traps were made. This process is done completely by hand, and Friendship Trap has been doing it since they opened in 1977. Today, they provide the fishing industry with traps, supplies, and--Vivesan. Our Marine Cleaner is used to remove gunk from lobster traps and marine equipment. http://www.Friendship.com

To maintain sanitary and operational equipment, fishing industry professionals must use cleaning products that eventually find their way into the watershed. However, as they look to the long term viability of their industry, commercial fishermen are actually leading demand for safer alternatives. They can now choose Vivesan, a carcinogen-free and fully biodegradable Marine Cleaner, recently showcased in March at the Maine Fishermen’s Forum, an annual three day commercial fishing event held in Rockport, Maine.
 

Home carpet extraction machines typically lack the heat and extraction power of professional units. Good thing Vivesan works well in both. Karen writes, "I shampooed my bedroom carpet that was severely stained with all types of stains. I used a home carpet shampooer and expected typical mediocre results. I was absolutely amazed at the results. The carpet was totally clean, not a stain left with very minimal pre-treatment on my part. I have recommended Vivesan to others who have been amazed with the same phenomenal results."
