In Europe, microfiber
products have been commonly used in homes, hospitals, schools, hotels and various
commercial applications for years. Norwex products originated in Norway in
1994. The product line was originally developed for the commercial
cleaning industry.
While traveling in
Norway two dynamic women from Dauphin, Manitoba were introduced to the Norwex

in true entrepreneurial fashion set forth on their mission. Head Office remains
in Dauphin, Manitoba and products have been distributed throughout North
America since 1999.
