Our Story
Welcome to the story of ÁTHOS. What began as a simple love for a spotless home grew into a mission to reinvent plant based cleaning. Six years ago, our founder Tina noticed a gap that frustrated her every time she cleaned. She loved the idea of natural products, but the options she tried never delivered the deep, satisfying clean she expected.
Instead of settling, she became determined to change that. Driven by curiosity and a genuine passion for cleaning, Tina set out to create formulas that were both natural and powerful. She spent years exploring botanicals, studying ingredients, and working closely with expert chemists who shared her vision. Every trial and every test brought her closer to a simple belief: plant based cleaners should work just as well as traditional ones.
After three years of dedicated research and development, ÁTHOS was born. A collection of plant powered cleaners crafted with transparency, purpose, and a refusal to cut corners. No unnecessary additives, no shortcuts, and no empty promises. Just effective, thoughtful formulas made with ingredients you can trust.
ÁTHOS is the result of one person’s passion for a better clean, and a commitment to creating products that care for both your home and the planet.
Inspired by the self-sustaining practices of Mount Áthos in Greece, ÁTHOS has always prioritized eco-conscious business methods. Every bottle we produce reflects our respect for the environment, mirroring the sustainable harmony of the inhabitants of Mount Áthos with their land.
Maintaining our dedication to quality and community, all our manufacturing processes take place right here in Chicago. This local production allows us to keep a keen eye on quality while also nurturing and supporting our local community.
Today, ÁTHOS proudly presents four distinct, truly clean cleaning solutions: Bathroom, Glass & Window, Granite and Stone, and Multi-Surface cleaners. In our continuous pursuit of sustainability, we even offer some of these in concentrated form to reduce single use plastic.
The ÁTHOS journey is more than just the production of cleaning solutions; it's a testament to resilience, sustainability, and innovation. As we continue to grow, we carry the essence of our origins in each bottle, offering you a cleaning experience that is as enriching for your home as it is for our planet. Join us as we redefine cleaning, one bottle at a time.
