O-Cedar's marketing signature is its slogan, "O-Cedar Makes Your Life Easier!®". During our one hundred year history, we have become the experts in making clean-ups easier and quicker for you. O-Cedar was the first company to produce an oil-treated dust mop, to market the squeeze-action sponge mop, and to introduce a lightweight, washable plastic angle broom. Since 1906, we have been offering consumers competitively priced, hard-working products with value-added features for real cleaning power that lasts. O-Cedar is a brand with quality that you can trust and this is why we are the most preferred brand of mops and brooms in the nation!
O-Cedar name trivia…do you know how the O-Cedar name originated?
The Channell Chemical Company started as a manufacturer of waxes and wood polishes, which were sold door to door in the early 1900's. One of the main ingredients in the polish was cedar leaf oil, so the founder of the company named the product
"O-Cedar Polish". As the company expanded, so did the brand awareness for O-Cedar so the company decided to change its name to O-Cedar!

Vileda name trivia…do you know how the Vileda name originated?
Years ago, people used leather to clean their windows. As the cost of leather continued to increase, an alternative was sought. The scientists at Freudenberg Household Products in Germany developed a material that looked and felt just like leather. For lack of a better name, they called it "like leather", which is "wie Leder" in German. And "wie Leder" is pronounced vi-leda, thus the brand name Vileda was born.
