Our rich history:

The difference goes back to our roots

Bona’s heritage has shaped who we are today. What started in 1919 as a small family-owned grocery store in Malmö, Sweden –– that also made a protective polishing agent for wood floors called, “bonvax” –– has grown into a multinational company with a presence in over 90 countries.
  • Bona’s founder, Wilhelm Edner

    In 1919...

    Our story began over 100 years ago with Bona’s founder, Wilhelm Edner. At the time, his first love was selling coffee at his small grocery store in Malmö, Sweden. Little did he know that bonvax would become his best-selling product.

    Did you know...

    Efficacy is of paramount importance at Bona. We use the best ingredients to meet the highest standards, resulting in floor cleaners that are very effective without being harsh.

    Did you know...

    Not only are our floor cleaners super effective but the rinse-free, streak-free formulas don’t require a bucket of water. In fact, the Bona Spray Mop uses 97% less water than a traditional mop and bucket.2

    Did you know...

    You can get 500 uses from one Bona Microfiber Pad, costing $8. The leading competitor’s disposable mop pad costs approximately 60 cents per pad (or more). Multiply that single-use cost by 500. That’s an overall difference of 292 dollars!3

    Drop the bucket and pick up the Bona Spray Mop

    Why lug around a heavy bucket of murky water and a dingy, old string mop, when you can enjoy the light and easy, carefree option – the Bona Premium Spray Mop? Say farewell to outdated methods of mopping, and say hello to the mop that makes sense!
    • Bona Spray Mops make the process easier

      The Bona Premium Spray mop is the new, modern way to clean your floors. Simply spray with a pull of the trigger for the perfect amount of Bona Floor Cleaner, then start mopping. It’s that simple!
    • String mops are difficult to manage, dirty, and cause damage

      String mops are difficult to manage, dirty, and cause damage

      The old string-mop and bucket method is not only exhausting; it’s frankly unsanitary and bad for your floors because:

      • You’re using a mop head that never gets clean, and you’re using bucket water that doesn’t stay clean. The result? Dirt and bacteria get pushed around on your floor.
      • Excess water can cause wood floors to cup, and it may damage the finish. Plus, water is being wasted by the litres!
    • The Bona Microfiber Cleaning Pad: no rinsing, no wringing

      The Bona Microfiber Cleaning Pad: no rinsing, no wringing

      Our spray mop includes Bona’s Microfiber Pad with Dual-Zone cleaning action to break down dirt particles and trap them away. That combined with our rinse-free, streak-free floor cleaner leaves floors sparkling clean. When you’re done, toss the cleaning pad in the washer. It can be washed and reused up to 500 times!
