A corn broom company since 1896
Libman has been family owned since 1896. It started with a single product, a wire-wound corn broom. The line now runs to angle brooms, wet mops and spin mops, scrub brushes, toilet bowl brushes, sponges, gloves and liquid cleaners.
The company's headquarters and plant sit at 1 Libman Way in Arcola, Illinois. The local paper, the News-Gazette, has covered roadwork Arcola contracted to serve the Libman plant during a warehouse expansion.
Most products, not all
Libman's wording is careful: "Most of our products are made right here in the USA in Arcola, IL with US and globally sourced materials." Most leaves room for items made elsewhere, and some of the materials in the Arcola-made tools come from abroad.
The Precision Angle broom and dustpan, the Wonder Mop refills, the Rinse 'n Wring and Tornado mop systems and the scrub brushes shown here are tied to the Arcola plant, and several of their listings state US origin directly. For any Libman item not shown here, look for the Made in USA mark on the package.
