THE SA8 ™ NAME

The origins of the name SA8 are founded in two stories. The first one quotes Amway co-founder Rich DeVos, who explains, the "S" in SA8 stands for "Surface", while the "A" represents "Active", and "8" refers to the 8 ingredients used in the original formula, thus forming rationale for the name SA8. The other version says that SA8 was the name of the 8th formula with Surface Active agents that were developed by the R&D of Amway. Either way, SA8 is an incredible success story!

SA8 Laundry Detergent makes its debut in 1960 as the second product introduced by Amway (after L.O.C.) and the first concentrated laundry detergent with biodegradable surfactants to enter the United States market.

As a complete laundry care system, the SA8 brand provides simple solutions to both common and uncommon laundry care problems. Under the trusted SA8 name, this system of outstanding detergents and additive products provides cleaning power that's effective, consistent, and reliable, yet gentle to clothes. Above all else, the SA8 brand stands for performance.
